swish the flower arranger
they never made it flame out, it was summer time from memory, so i guess they was worried about setting the joint alight, the trees behind it got a fair ole bend up when the thong it the floor
when u stop and think about it, yes, swish i do think occasionly , off the line ,waltzing matilda was always gunna be slow, unless they coulda hitched the jet up to the rear wheels and popped the clutch,the oil dripper wouldnt have been left for dead

I remember seeing a few fitted to Louisvilles when I did my apprenticship.The mounting bracket for the springs was welded on to the brake backing plate and I think the other end may have been held on by the U bolts,I can recall that clamping arrangment.
