This couple of weeks was killing me!

I got High-Jacked on the 19th January and today I got a call from the assessor that her report is now done!

They took my baby!

Waiting for the insurance to sort it out now!

Sh*t! No comfort I'm sure....but vehicles can be replaced, not live's. Glad you are ok.

Hi all, hope all is well!

I want to change my drums on the diff over to disk breaks an was wondering if ant of you have done this before?

I will like to bolt on something but if there are some modification to be done then it will be done!

Hi All,

Man o Man, it is difficult to get stuff done from Botswana!

But yesterday I talked to Paul and he said that he can bring me a 3UZ front cut in for R36000.

Do you think this is a good price, I think it is OK as all the required parts will be in the front cut to get the motor running!

Or do I go and buy one of the wired up Lexus motors? Then all the issues of radiator oil cooler and, and makes the price go through the roof!

What is the feeling on this?

Hugh I have send that P.M!
