I managed to get my laptop going again (was using brother inlaws desktop)

Here is a picture showing the car at cruising speed in the NT


And here we have the NT equivalent to the Hay Plains, it is the Barkly lake Eyre basin.


Refueling at Barkly Homestead.


Getting closer to Qld, and the chance to straighten out my legs.


Getting a hamburger from my favorite burger shop.
FJ's diner in Hughendon.
I have never driven past without getting one, I actually was not hungry this time but it has become a "tradition" that each time I drive through Hughendon I stop for a burger and a milkshake, they are very yummy.

There are a whole heap of bugs and grasshoppers in the radiator, I cleaned them out when I refuelled, You can also see that there is a big white bit in the nose above the oil cooler, that is a stone chip, the stone then went up into the radiator, there are some bent fins and damaged tube, it was at this point I was glad I had a modified Commodore brass radiator and not an alloy one. (brass will bend alot more before breaking, unlike alloy)
