You could always narrow and shorten in , give it an electric motor and then you'd have a decent little electric gopher buggy to help Sue while her ankles weak ??? At least then she'd be driving a moke and can't say they are useless

did I tell you that I won a trophy?

Thats the price you pay to win a sound off trophy.

The oil slick is looking good, fading slowly.

Bah! Bit of polish and that will buff right out.

Ok my pea green monster..

Alternator required
Body work repairs, some rust removal
Complete respray
Interior needs to be re-done
new rims and tyres
Carby could use a good clean
new steering wheel

Ok that's the bad stuff, good things
Interior light works
The bumpers are in great condition
good brakes
good clutch
good suspension
the spiders keep the flys under control

Thats because they leaked from new - most people wouldn't count oil leaks on their things to do list unless rego was due.
