Pat was having trouble with this old girl until I turned up and said some soothing words in a dulcet tone ... to the truck.

Progress Andy,are you 2 going to Echuca?

i am glad the smoke cleared enough for a picture

Hi Pat,whats the go with the top of the gaurds?Did you take it for a little spin once it was going?

i had got here running before ANDREW turned UP, should of seen the look on his face , when all the smoke came out

she was a stubborn old girl.. when i bought it the previous owner said that a diff had failed , so it was all up to the starter motor,after 2 days on and off the battery charger , the old girl finaly kicked , and mann did she below some smoke so i can,t take her for a rap down the back, but i am pulling the radiator out as the top tank has come apart at the join it is a bout 6 inchs long, it also looks like sombodt has given her a whack on the bumper across the front from the left side , bent the rails in front of the hanger > > > >, this will take some fixen with my backyard ways

Dis you work out why the top of the gaurds are cut out?If the front of the rails are bent,she might be bent a bit further back too,you probobly don`t have to get it perfect up the front,it`s all hidden and you can fudge the bumper brackets.You can even get away with the middle and compensate with the steering wheel. :-X :-X :-X

We had a bogie Isuzu backing out the other day when a truck from around the corner come hooking up the street not watching what he was doing,that bent the chassis too,as well as a fair bit of other damage.The bonnet and cab/door of a Mack Vision don`t stand up to well to the back corner of a tilt tray either.

I was fine with the smoke, Pat, as, after all, I can breathe through my a*se. It was the cobwebs that blew out at the same time that threw me.

Hi CAM

not sure what you are looking at,, all the gaurds on my diamonds look the same

In the very first pic,the line and scroll makes it look like the gaurd is cut out.
My steering colomn rubber where the same,I cut a piece of rubber and put it along the flat part and that tightened them up.
