    Where the Bigmeat at? I have a few interested parties on this side of the Passi-fik but have a couple of questions
    The answer is more power! What was the question?

    He doesn't come on here every day. But he'll show up soon. I feel very sorry for you guys BTW. I just had some brake cylinders shipped over from OZ for my '67 Patrol and the shipping price was more than the price of the parts! You may want to see if he can set up come kind of licensing agreement with someone over there and have them built on site.

    I have my account set up to auto email anytime someone posts something in my subscribed threads. Very convenient.

    Yeah we are a long way from anywhere lol but consider it this way
    I gave my 6VE1 a drink and bent 4 rods - I got rings, pistons, rods and gasket set from the US, paid US 270 for shipping alone and the whole lot arrived at my door for less than the Aust dealers price for the gasket set alone!

    We dont sell many of these he says on the phone......cant imagine why not!

    The thought had crossed my mind. I have access to the facilities required
    He could get a fee for every one we sell. Passive income is the best kind

    Isn't Japan right on your doorstep though? I would think replacement parts would be cheapest coming right form the source. But what do I know, the maps here are all screwed up:

    Well I guess as the most populated Western country you guys get the focus
    The parts were all US-made replacements rather than Isuzu. The dealers gasket kit was the same brand as I got from the US!

    As someone who has been to almost all of those places...its about right, except they did not mention indonesia and human trafficking. Australia isn't just kangoroos, its also home of Fosters, Outback Steakhouse, and of course Steve Irwin...I think that about sums it up, oh, Africa isn't just zoo animals, don't forget politicians.

    No Outback Steakhouse here mate, OS is an American franchise! And contrary to what a very successful ad campaign worldwide would have you believe, hardly anyone in OZ drinks XXXX or Fosters of any kind

    PS I've been to an Outback Steakhouse (in NC), was quite un-Australian!
