Weak!! Try driving 18 hours Melbourne to Narrabri after being awake for 17 :P :P :P


Sorry Simon, Watto gets the kudos, he was in a Moke with trailer and had the flu.

Simon I like your logic, unless you are implying that I am a homosexual in which case I hope your children are leppers.... JUST KIDDING :mrgreen:

EDIT: and thanks Blue van DUDE who had swine flu at hay

No I'm all about the bullet train long trips. I've bought a couple of minis down in Vic and bought them back in a day and a half. I live for the road trips. I live for it.

When I went down to Hay this yeah I drove the mini and a lot of the yellow livered, gutless, limp wristed, skirt wearing, freckle punching members of the Mini Car Club Of NSW (c'mon guys don't have a cry you know I'm joking) called me mad, stupid, brainless and alienated me for driving my mini for more than 15 minutes. All except one guy named either Rod or Rob, he was quite a nice bloke and I wish I had gotten his number so that I could keep in touch (not in the gay way). But he was seriously about the only new south welshman interested in boosting the numbers in his club and being friendly to non club members. It's just Sydney people. They're scared of driving. And of being nice to people.

NOTE: the author of this post would like to appologise to any gay or other sydney siders for any offense casued by the above content. He wishes to assure you that it was all intended as a joke... Excpt the bit about most sydneysiders, man you guys are un friendly... :?

This item isn't in the for sale section as there is no feedback, and there is no specific things for sale.

I will post some photos up soon and a brief list of some things i can see...

What is the specific date that the skip bins start arriving? I don't know how serious some of these guys are about driving over and buying stuff.. I'm game.

I fully realise and appreciate that you are sick of it and want out, so not to inconvience you any furhter but are you willing to assist with postage on any items? For serious buyers obviously.

Believe me I understand, I watched my dad go thru the same thing when i was a kid, he thru out two or three skips full of mini stuff he couldn't give away. So any assistance or info you can provide is much appreciated.

Thanks

Sounds good Steve.

Will you be around to open up on Saturday the 3rd if a few of us come over?

Assuming that is the date we will be making the run!!

No, lets just do it that weekend. I'm going, Dean, pack your lunchbox, your going on another road trip!!! :twisted:

Anyone else? Shall we catch up some where Phat Kat?

There is no specific date yet, just booked it in for October sometime...
i am currently sorting out some of the parts when i'm not working.
this should be done over the next few weeks.
I can help with postage for serious buyers, there is also a tuck and trailer available,
and access to a shipping container.

You'll have a lot more fun with the minis again when they go back to being a passtime instead of a income.
Well, I hope you do. :D

Damian, only on two conditions.

1. have you recovered from your swine flu

2. are you one of those gay sydney siders that just took out a contract on me working under cover?

If the the answers are yes and no (in that exatct order), then I will do my best to meet up with you in mildura, I've only got 3 weeks to finish a rolling shell that I'm taking to mini's at the mill as a finished car so if its getting tight I might have to bail and order my stuff like a pussy sydney sider. WILL let you know closer to the date

PS which way were you guys going? Do you even go thru mildura?

Going through Mildura is slightly the longer way... turn left just before Balranald and head down to Ouyen,
