Nice Stu, didn't realise Ben had a louvre punch. Been awhile since I've been down to the workshop. Should get some done in the visor on the same lines ......

Must be time for an update shot of the ute.

I hear ya! We have to use the Eastern Freeway to minimise Punt rd chaos to get there, only downside is the tollway....

Was on a run with him two weekends ago.

That looks AWESOME!

Anyone know how much it would cost to freight a bonnet over from Perth? :D

Nice louvres. Pretty basic looking tooling too.

When I was down in Melbourne some weeks back my driver was whinging that in peak hour the speed on the freeways is usually half what it should be.

Come to Sydney........there's freeways where your speed is Zero during peak hour :lol:

Hey Mud and DR do you know if that guy would put louvres in a flat piece of sheet and send it.
Then I can fit it in my bonnet / front............ best not send my tilt front to him..... freight would be a killer :shock:
