Hell no! Wheeling comes first! The problems lie in financial restrictions and uni stepping in the way

got so excited i turned up today at 9:20 wandered where everyone was waited till 10:15 was like WTF why no one turn up, maybe they started at SH1, so came home now realised "Sunday 21st aug". How about ill see you guys tomorrow ae?

[ActyonMan]

Better a day early than a day late - at least you can try again tomorrow.

[mike]

After 9 months of sitting, pulled the started and unseized it and wound it over and boom! it fired into life. changed the diff over (can't believe it drove out on that diff last trip) and took it for a test drive and nothing but total awesomeness one can only get from a rover will be there at 9:30am tomorrow. I can only do 2 hours up the river and 2 hours back as the bro wants to take his family for a spin at 2pm back at the bridge. Or we could do 3 hours up and 1 hour back we'll see what eventuates tomorrow

[ClassicCruiserSpares]

So whos all coming? just so we know were not waiting on someone who's not actually coming? Meeting at 9.30 now.

[yeti]

had a blast ,, all 20 minutes or so....




becoming a bit of a habit that



oh well shit happens, dead trans.......i have a spare...

i only got one pic before i was sent home.....




sorry to delay things guys, hope the rest of ya day was better, ..

and thanks heaps for the help

[Mud Hog]

Bugger Wayne at least you have a spare let me know if you need a hand swapping them over.

[niblik]

i had a blast thanks fella's... good to meet a new face and catch up with others...

that was a bit unfortunate about the swim wayne but at least she's sparkin again.. wiser for the experience.. ya kept a smile on ya dial which was great to see..

when i went through there first, the engine and exhaust noise just disappeared. jase reached for his seatbelt release in prep for hookin something up to drag me out... i thought i had died as i looked over at my snorkel intake to insure no water got there, mashed skinny pedal and she bit and away she went!! heh.. the hei and positive pressure to it have made a massive difference to the once sensitive h20 situation in vomitron.. oober woot...

as for the above pic... that was funny... over the crest and "NO!" rings from my coey.. he saw the massive drop in and it was good to get to there!

[yeti]

all good nibs,, yep wiser as in next time put my spare dry clothes up higher,,,farken water was cold.... you guys sort out who gets the 8k.....

cheers simon, gonna do trans swap next weekend maybe,, will let ya know..

[petefj40]

That's a bugga Wayne. Not a good look for us Jeep owners there.
Good to hear you kept smiling the whole way through.

More pix guys.

[niblik]

all good nibs, yep wiser as in next time put my spare dry clothes up higher

lucky ya got ya radio up too..

you guys sort out who gets the 8k.....

nick and i will go halves...

[mike]

cheers for the trip guys, was awesome going through that track, felt like on a safari with all the gorse and shit coming through the windows. Man I miss driving the rover. Its now in a going state so my bro will hopefully be taking it out on a few trips when they are run. looking after him means your looking after the rover in the process. she is pretty bullet proof up till the idiot in the driving seat (he's more of a nanna than me so she should be pretty safe)

a dry vomatron = dryreachatron

good luck fixing the jeep yeti, after seeing how deep it was on your back window I decided no way in hell I was going through after you!

nibs you got my shitty old tow rope still? might send my bro round so he can keep it with the rover (prob need it if its not in there) pm me your addie, he lives near you i think.

[rokhound]

Well Mike, it is looking quite a few of the old school Cantabs are going top have rigs that will be in going condition over the next few months (ish). Maybe you should look at moving back here eh?
stir stir.

Will let you know when some trips are coming up so you can be in (if you are allowed out )

[yeti]

wasnt that deep mike, jeeps just little thats all......

[flexy]

haha went flying past nibs and nick in the jet boat today as you wer coming home,,went right between the two of them crossing the river

[ClassicCruiserSpares]

Awesome day out the weather was mint, Good to put faces to names with a few more people.
Wayne good to here the jeep fired up again and hopefully we'll see the jeep out on the trails again sometime soon.
