Funny you should say that, it is a bit of a blurry story, but I looked like elma fud when i was younger, and supposedly that is how it came about. I will post a picture up later and you can tell me what you think.

Fud,
Glad to see the wheels arrived. The ute looks great and great to see all the old boys getting into it.
