??????? - hunting for a daily

Damn I've had some gay rides.... Must say though, the poo brown Mazda 626 sedan with auto was the gayest by far.

Most entertaining/enjoyable was the 82 VW Kombi - that thing was the biggest shit stir, and was a heap of fun. Had it decked out with some monstrous doof doof, chucked some strobes in, hung a 30cm disco ball from the roof, put a milo tin exhaust tip on, a VL turbo badge on the bootlid, and topped it off with electric blue ricer hubcaps. Used to do Chap laps in it and shit stir all the muzzas. Had the engine recoed, and ran it in with 3 hours of continuous circle work in some parkland, used to take it paddock bashing at least once a week, and the poor seats and floor of that thing saw soooo much spew and beer.

Even though it was a holden, I do sometimes regret selling it. I just never drove it. It had a 6 x 8ft timber tray (new timber). The motor was pertty fresh as well. The only thing i didnt like was the gearbox, and clutch setup... It was like holden had all these left over parts, and used them all to make the worst setup for adjusting the clutch. Whats wrong with a cable...

If I had kept it, I definitely would have changed the gearbox and clutch setup. Certainly was fun to drive, and even though it had a pirate diff, it could leave a 50m+ line no worries.

by **Schmee** » August 29th, 2007, 11:24 am

mine was like that for a stage 4.44 ratio sailsbury cig locker and used to smoke thru to top gear...bagloads of fun especially with no tray just a sheet of ply and some guards ....hehehehe
