    ACT. 260 bus

    Yep thats the one
  3. Hi Guys I am selling off my 260 bus. I did some work on it a little while back and did rust repairs (which are shown on the forums here) But there is a couple of spots on the other side that still need some work. I want $500 for it and most of that is for the l26 that is there with flat top pistons. the car is pulled apart and comes that way. the car use to be a rally car and needs a new bonnet. call me on 0418682838

    I have sat back and let things die down a little for a while now and I would like to explain myself. I was in a rental with house and workshop. The guy who was renting to me (Sam from Monster sport sup) for a year refused to take calls and emails from us as to the state of the place. I did alot of work in maintainance on the property just trying to keep it together but things like a septic that didnt work I would not fix because it was not mine to fix and I would not have the money. In the end the council came in and shut the place down because the guy who was pumping the septic weekly called them one because the plumber had done more damage and raw surage was escaping and 2 because he refused to take any more of my money as it was not my fault. The plumber left it in its state because he was owed thoughsands for what he had done. So septic system, the building between the house and the workshop full of aspestis started to fall down, the electrical dangers in the place (I fixed alot up in the house and workshop being an a x sparky but refused to work on the derelect buildings. so the council gave us 3 days to get out of there. the only place we could get had a single car garage and the workshop i was after i got out done price wise on. I was also in an accident where i got tboned on the drivers side of my pathfinder and the drivers seat was moved 4 inches across. I would realy have liked to finish the job but my wifes ill health at the time. My ill health and the situation of a single car garage that you cant park a vt wagon in and shut the door made it imposable to do this. It was a real kick in the teeth for me and Michael and a bad start to my own venture and I hope that one day i will get over it and try again.
  5. Hey guys I was wondering if someone could help me out. I purchased a something off ebay but the guy wont ship it. So I was wondering if someone close to Mill Park would be able to pick it up and chuck it on a pallet or pass it on to someone heading to canberra for me. I know its a big ask and I will pay for transport and A carton of beer or something. Or even once this product is set up on my mill I could make a part for you. Send us a text if you can help on 0418682838.

The roof corners rusted out, the floor rusted out, fire wall rusted out, pillars were worse for wear. Informed the guy about it and told him i could have a perfect new cab but didnt wanna know about it. He told me that i can fix it all with stuff i made. not long now before it needs to be finished and we are still going will let you all know how it goes.

    Engineering

    I am not standing up for John and I am not promoting him. I have had plenty of dealings with him and he has over the last 10 years gotten less social. He has been stuffed around by a lot of people and would be fair to say stuffed people around. As a business owner I could choose to send you a bill for having a look at your car. I could also bill you for the time of travel. That's how engineers work. I have used both of them. I have been told I can't do something by ray then had John say that's fine and John was right and ray charged me more to say no then John to say yes. But also vise versa. However in the last 10 years I have used John that much that I just call him up tell him what I'm doing and he tells me to do it. Haven't had a problem with the rta yet and I have done some crazy things. However ray does still seam to be a better person to go through. I believe that John has some health issues and has maybe lost the love of it. He may drive a van but I have worked on his skyline and it's nice and I have sold him plenty of stuff too and he does come across with that manner. But 1200 is cheep in Canberra a commodore was gonna cost me 4500 to get done by ray and 2500 by John so everyone has there possatives and negatives
  17. Unfortunatly it appears I will not make it. Had other plans tonight.
  18. Hi guys. Yes I'm up for that. Sorry about Christmas and vanishing of the face of the plannet. Been buisy with lawers and the like. Plus need a new job.
