Congrats on No 4 Tom. Having the car to finish is a good way of avoiding the nappie changes etc

. The joy of bench seats with 4 kids, is you can put the shit stirring one between you and give them a good ribbing. I need a new 4wd for work, and finding it a bit frustrating that its a standard 100s landcrusier or nothing if you want to seat 6 while keeping the tools in the back. All the others just fit the lunchbox in when the third row of seats are up.
Maybe an overlander FB/EK wagon

where running around in a turbo mq patrol atm (7seater)it's nearly indistructable but the rust, well in not game to try fixing it

maybe overlanding an ek wagon

nah the wife would kill me

well samantha has put on 1lb in the last 2weeks and has kept my wife and i feeling really tired

thought it was about time i posted some more pics of the EK
here are some before and after shots of some of the rust repairs done to date.
to date over 100 plates have been welded into the car.
these are some of the more dificult repairs.
i'm in the middle of doing one section that will take around a week to do.
IT'S A SHOCKER. I'll post pics once it's finished.
if you replace more than 50% of the metal in a car do you have to regester it as a new car

Nice job forming up the rear legs Tom, all worth it in the end. As for feeling tired, I'm trying to pluck up the courage to get the snip (i just hope its a female and she pretty

), and make sure there is no five time blue's. Althought i recken its pretty amazing how one continues to function on 4/5 hours sleep

Congratulations Tom and Mrs. Tom.
I'd hate to be the young chap who upsets Samantha - with three elder brothers to answer to..............
I am very envious of her Tom, her hair is going to grow - mine is is reverse....

Very impressed with your panel work - patience, results will more than reward it.......

frats,
Rosco
