Hello Everyone,
I have just picked up a FB ute from Sydney and have her on a truck on the way over now. Am reliving my childhood as I had a FB as my first car when I was 11 on our farm in 1978. Lots of memories with that girl before a mate and I decided what she would look like with 20kgs of explosive under her ( yes totally regret it now)
Anyway recently divorced so no one can tell me not to waste my money (even if the ex took most of it anyway).
Kermit (as I call her) needs a small amount of work so will be looking for some help when I reach a dead end
Am asking around if there are any clubs you could recommend and any fun days to be had.
Cheers and hope to meet you all soon in WA

Welcome to the mad house mate,

Lots of fun times ahead to be had me thinks.

"Anyway recently divorced so no one can tell me not to waste my money (even if the ex took most of it anyway).

I'm thinking your FB is named Kermit and not the ex,

Catch you at the next club meeting

I was a fast learner......tried it once and never gone back for a second try! I'd be richer than Gina by now if that little speed hump didn't occur

Come and join us here in the Sunshine State Club and you won't be disappointed!

Yeah but the difference is Tim , we actually have sunshine in WA during summer - every time I go to QLD its PISSING down and the locals always say " you should have been here yesterday , it was beautiful "

Winter on the other hand , its bloody miserable over here

I can totally agree with that Blacky!
