Hi all from down under.
Attached is my new pride and joy. number 157 / 175. (i cannot work out how to attach a photo)
I picked the truck up on Friday in Brisbane and drove home to Canberra over 3 days. (around 1200 km) i did take my time getting home, stopping in and saying hi to friends on the way...and of course showing of the new shiney.
When I picked the truck up it was down a liter of oil, took care of that very quickly! Over the entire drive it only went though 250 ml of oil, not much at all really. Though i was really surpised by the size of the fuel tank...82 liters...@ 1:50$ a liter....(for those not in the know 5 liters to a gallon)
It was a uneventful driveand i enjoyed every bounce, every look, every Kilometre of the drive
Over the next few weeks my plan is to:
Have an alarm fitted.
It goes in for a service tomorrow and a road worthy.
Saturday it goes in for a quick transmission over look so the mechanic can make sure that we can get parts for it.
Next week i will have the speakers looked at, as one is somewhat crackly at higher lvl of volume. I may even put in a amp of some sort.
Also my plan is to order my custom number plate, I was thinking VX 157 with a motto under neath “irresponsible fun” :bgwg:
