Started to remove the stereo the surf came with, took up too much cargo space!

These all came out

Mounted an extinguisher in the back

And painted these

)

Thats all for the surf this weekend, going goat culling on sunday

took the kids to the new adreniline forest in porirua, ended up having a crack it myself, 21 m off the ground standing on a wire rope that is wobbling all over the place is um interesting, or a log bridge that the logs rotate, hmm, recommend taking kids and yourself to it great 4 hrs of entertainment.

Managed to crack one of my exhaust manifolds off on the truck today with it's leaking $500 rebuilt steering box, smacked my head with the surfboard, water pump shat itself in my other car.
Not the best start to the weekend so passenger now for a trip tomorrow.
Still waiting for my 8grand from the guy i recovered up ahipara last week too. :lol:

That shits never gonna get old. Did a full service on the patrol. Nothing like working under a shitty carport in full rain getting saturated for 3 hours.

More of a midweek achievement.

Got the wife a new car (after years of pestering)

1996 Nissan Skyline GTS25T coupe (her dream car)

now I wil start buying spare parts so eventually I will have enough to buy a RB30 Patrol and change it so its a RB30 block with 25det head and turbo and then have some fun with that.
