Title: Yeah - I know I said I was staying away for a bit, but just a quickie...
Post by: Anti-Dive Dave on December 05, 2012, 12:40:23 PM
I have puit some pics up on Flickr.

I know y'all know what an FJ looks like, but I bought me this pile of shite in March 2012, and managed on a welfare/retired income to get it through a test and on the road by June 2012.

It might not be the best job in the world compared to all you guys pristine machines, but I gotta work with limited tools and money I had.

Me flickr set link thing:

Right.  Wheres me hat.  I'm away again.

:hi: :bye2:

Mine are far from pristine also. They are ridden, not worshipped!
