ahhh ffs lol..
na mum went away for a holiday leaving me and my bro to watch the house, and she didn't want me driving it around our property (in a mothers eyes, i drive like a F*cken maniac [88] ) but yeah, she was gonna take keys, but she new/thought i would hotwire it, so i walk into the shed, to find my escort with no back wheels, mum got my bro to remove them while i was at work the day before she left!
cant drive with no wheels!
lol
big fuss for nothing.. everyone expecting me to say i got on the brake and rooted both tyres?

anyway, enough baby faces.
got the new module today, started the escort up for the first time in 2 weeks, fired right up.. (2 weeks to me is like 5 years for you "long term" guys)
sounds so good & strong, love it.
roadworthy will be at 1 of 2 places this weekend.. got to decide which.
got yet ANOTHER tacho, and this is with the electronic coil now..
STILL DOESN'T WORK!! what is with my luck with tacho's??
its perfect at idle (which apparently is about 900rpm) other wise its jittery and un-constant.

right, thought i would upload more nonsense, and pictures that nobody gives a sh*t about! haha! just what's been happening recenetly gave the car a polish, idealy needs an actual buffing/cutting back. small dot, at first thought it was a paint blemish, just noticed today its gotten bigger... ARGH must be rust... and guess where? back of the back doors, near the water rail.. classic 4door spot... and put the door trims i made on, finalyl got rid of the fizz, as you noticed i removed the dash insert aswell, haven't finished that one yet. what better car do paddock bomb/destroy than a manual VK?  freaken Holdens, a gemini and now a VK and both were dead after the first paddock rally! only the mazda has survived 3!  yeah its a real death trap.. but hey, its fun.  Joeys datsun   quality car haha     new engine for the datsun.. why? cuz we had this sitting around, shes already rebuilt too, not even 10,000ks in.        see anything you want? feel free to ask. sorry but the head is staying  and u wonder how me accomplish so much?

Hay for the Pinto, I have never seen that done before.[:x)]
The Esky is looking clean and sparkly. The dunnydoor would be fun to destroy.
Video of the red thing doing reverse wheel stands into the VK would be nice.
Good luck playing in the dyno acre. watch your mates if you do it on the piss.
You will never want to drive tanked on the road if you play up in the paddock.

seen what done before? and unfortunaly the mazda finally broke, well it still runs and drives, so its not dead yet, but its got no reverse, and no 3rd 4th and 5th lol so no more reverse donuts [8~2] i did do a handbrake turn (purposly) into the front of the vk.. was funny haha. i finished all the door trims and dash insert..  unfortunaly the door trims dont look as good as this peice, but hey, its all neat anyways.

Pinto meaning horse.[:I]
You have a JD waiting to be opened.
The trim is a nice touch. better than the fuzzy stuff you had.
What next for the beast?
The VK has a tow bar. I bet you could surf a bonnet behind it[:x)]
