As good old Borat said........

"Very nice - Great success" !!!!!!!!!!

The fact that the ute is an FB and not an EK shouldn't stand in the way of the fact that you guys have put one very nice old beauty back on the road - well done fellas.

Now Sam

On a completely different subject. while doing photoshop can you or anyone else do something with those pink shorts?

Good on ya guys

Dave Mac :D

PS - do you have a factory brochure for the ute? If not I can get a scan done for you.
