A bike shop or Ford caryard...:confused: Lowering the back with 40mm leaf springs. The lowering blocks left a bit to be desired. |
Inspired by the common-sense and practicality of a ute (thanks Bernie) I have bought me a green one. Drove the Boss 290 home last night. Might even bring it to Wakefield. Yeeehaa!!!
Scouting around for a desolate back-drop for some photos like Bernies! Richard |

Well done..a red, a yellow and a green. Blue anyone??. Ooops sorry BJ.. %/ BJ's blue ute... http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...nished_017.jpg Just took delivery of the lower mesh grill similiar to BJ's and will install it later today. %/ The ute is lowered 40mm at the rear - 1 1/2" - on Thursday, so will sit level. Good - as I do not carry anything. My trailer is balanced and does not weigh over the tow hitch. |
BF XR8 Sedan
Picked up a BF XR8 Sedan last week.
Very nice car to drive. Have only had two occasions with traction issues so far, seems the traction control got turned off during start up. **) **) Had to get a blue one. So now I'm a 2 V8 household. Got an Aluminium one in the garage, and Quad cam one in the driveway. Who said too many V8's is not enough :rolleyes: |
Hell
Fords' sales must be up..:LOL: |
Love those Fords!
Regards. |
I picked up my new oil burner the other day. Ordered it back at the start of April and finally took delivery of it last Thursday. It's turning out to be a neat little car. The 2 litre turbo diesel only makes 103 KW (which is pretty healthy for a turbo diesel) but it makes huge ammounts of torque 320NM which makes for some very satisfying acceleration.
It's deceptively quick and nice to drive, so far the wife and I are very happy with the new car. I haven't snapped any pics of it but it looks like this: http://www.volkswagen.com.au/jetta/w04_800.jpg Cheers |
Well we all know that torque rules. :D
Aussie Mike, will have to let us know how the economy goes, with real world driving, like any of us here would do. |
16 cylinders in the garage. Can't go wrong with that, Churchy! My cobra will be happy to share digs with the new ute: sure won't miss that fandangled rotary!

It needs flames Bernie... very nice! I wonder how hard it would be to get one of those over here? I could send you a GT500 in trade perhaps....
Enjoy Steve:o |
Now Mike, no setting up bio-deisel plants for your new oil burner untill the Cobra's finished. You've got enough distractions already :)
|
Am I that predictable?
Well, yes I probably am :p No plans for a bio diesel plant yet but I have read up on the process :D Cheers |
Mulv,
Hi Steve, Just the thing for those quick runs across state. Would be hard to get Hersh and Nancy in with you and I. Mmmm perhaps the tray!!..:LOL: Will ring soon Bernie |
A week old today.
Typical isn't, you buy a nice shiny new car and it rains every other day. It'll get a wash on Saturday. http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/data/500/jetta.jpg Cheers |
Well it has five studs Mike.
Have you made a set of pin drive hubs and fitted halibrands yet?:LOL: :LOL: |
Just so I wouldn't lose the barstard in the carpark, I made sure it was a bright one!http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...um/ute_019.jpg

G'day bernie,
Do you live in Australia or the northern block some where ? Every picture I've seen of your vehicles has been around mud and wet...stuff. Maybe you've got a big hose ? hahaha |
