Happy new year!
Well it's less than three hours away here in Melbourne - let's hope that '09 brings better economic times for all.
My new year's resolution is to finish the F15 for Chris by Corowa and it's moving well at this stage - installed the handbrake setup including the linkages. What are your resolutions?

Happy New Year
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL YOU MLU"s
Had a great New Year bash on the neighbouring farm, ate a million paua (Abalone to you northerners) and other heaps of feral meats and offal, unfortunately something must have upset my balance as I fell over a fence, assisted by a horse and sustained some injuries, never felt a thing until this morning when I had to get up for work. New Years Resolution, DONT CLIMB A FENCE WHILE INCAPACITATED AND BEING ASSISTED BY A HORSE AS A STOOL. ALL THE BEST TO YOU ALL ROOKIE

Happy New Year all,
My New Year's resolution is to help a friend out with getting the only surviving wartime Australian Army Weasel up and running for its intended debut at the Bundy Swim-In this June. There are approximately 125.7 metric craploads of work to be done on it before then. Just about everything - hull, suspension, bogies, steering, motor, gearbox and more needs to be dealt with. The amazing thing is we have good tracks ready to go on (and the correct 15" ones at that), so for once in a Weasel's life the most difficult items are not an issue. The hull is being rebuilt by grafting the remains of another hull on to the back. http://202.63.50.228/gallery2/main.p...3168&g2_page=2 Wish us luck! Steve.

I too have too many projects and too little time.
Last years resolution was to finish the Diamond T and I came so close. This year I'm not making one, just going to plod along and see what happens. Although I have said that I will float the jeep in a tarp at the Bundy swim-in.  Have a great year everyone!! Cheers Jeff

HNY to all...
My new year's resolution is to not make any more resolutions. Will be working to get the F15 to Corowa, as well as Ganmain Tony's F60L! A divorce seems to be getting closer...  HH

You can send her to me, if she finished with you. Grin.
Seriously a great lady, pleasing on the eye, and I expect she gives you loads of support. All the best in the new year to you all. Regards Col

For me, the great things about this are (a) I will be videoing the antics of getting the jeep to float (b) It's not my jeep being floated and (c) Should step (b) turn out unsuccessful, there will be an interesting collection of vehicles (LVT4, DUKW, GPAs and hopefully the Kenworth Wrecker) available ready to recover your jeep from Davy Jones Locker Steve.
