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

Nothing wrong with
'Chinese Steel Caps'
I wear 'em myself .. as for you're ute Sam...it's a thing of beauty..and I dig the Fruiterer shot's too...although you should have put Dave in the leather apron..It'd suit him
