I dragged this Morry out of the tip at Coober Pedy , we got it running except for the brakes and beat up on it all weekend and drove it on the trailer to come home :thumbsup:

This thing is a cack - the Albany boys built it , its a 1995 Fairlane floorpan and running gear with a'57 Chev sedan body dropped over it :shock:

Boris gave the Rambler a pizzling all weekend

Looks like a great event. Makes me want to build a hack just to do it.

Is that your Indian on the transporter Blacky?

Cheers,

John

No mate , its a Triumph from memory , one of the guys came off it that year in a big way and hurt himself pretty substantially , as did one guy this year when he crashed a Deltek Rockhopper - broken collarbone , 2 broken ribs and a punctured lung :shock:
