new carrier arrives home

[Lew Skelton]

So got into it again today, a few finishing touches to ensure it was going to go ( hose clamps ignition wired up, fuel, oil pressure ) and then it started first crank and idled nicely, let it warm up and then did up the wheel nuts that hold on the drive sprockets (cheers eagle eye Dave) nosed it out of the garage went up and back on the drive, tensioned the track a little then out down the street loaded with children. Sadly no photos or video as I couldnt find my camera ( blambed the kids then found it just before , exactily where I left it ) The eel cooked was smoked and got gobbled up before I could get a look in. May head back out to the garage later just to make sure it still runs...... Did i mention that its got no exhaust just the manifold at the moment.......... Sounds awesome!!

So,........Have you been ripping up Shane and Tash's road frontage? How many people were there on Sandilands street at the time?

I pulled the speedo head apart yesterday, the odometer was faded beyond recognition but after pulling it apart and looking at the numbers either side it has only 983 miles on the clock (before it was disconnected or stopped working). Have now hit the road for a few days on holiday with the family.
