my laptop decided to throw it in. so lost everything, apprenticeship assignments, photos etc. im spewwin hard about it. so havn't been out working on the ute much. :/

Thats #OOPS# ay. Mine blew up last year in a storm(forgot to unplug it from the wall)



I hate that #oops# code crap

so today I've taken all the brakes apart, noted parts that need replacing, was hoping to get down to the brake and suspension shop today, but they are all shut for some unknown reason. So will head down Monday hopefully. Ah its coming together. :D

Went to the Brake Shop after work today. List of what is going to be done:

- Drum's machined, new shoes and brake cylinders
- New front discs, pads
- Caliper overhaul

I would just like to say. It's not cheap. Ahh.

hey just wondering if you could let me know how much you spent on the following.
Interior - trim:
paint:
removing rust:
extra body work: thanks

hey mate, I spent $300 on the interior trim. I have a upholsterer mate and he did them fairly cheap. Paint I spent $1760, fella did a good job as well for the price. I took it to him as a rolling shell and he did a little bit of panel work. Luckily for me there wasn't any rust to be removed the previous owner had removed it all.

yeah i just got my 1200 ute and want to do a mild build, so hopefully get it underway within the next few months. im only 16 as well. i will probably be hitting you up for some tips and tricks, haha

Well it's been about 2 months or so since I sold the ute, (probably been longer, time flies in grade 12). But just over the weekend I flew down to Melbourne and picked myself up my new toy.

A 1999 Subaru Liberty RX 2.5L manual sedan. After a lengthy 22hour drive home, and constant comparing to how the drive would feel if we were in a datsun. We were home.

Gave it a good clean today, still yet to be cut and polished but here it is.













It certainly has a few more features then the Datsun, but I do miss it.
