LP2A SAR 4993 rebuild

[motto]

Yes Mike it was Rod's Carrier and it gives me the creeps every time I think of it.
Immediately prior to taking it to Jells Park I had taken the Carrier to an event at the Corio Shire offices which are on high ground overlooking Corio Bay. The fellow arranging the vehicle display asked me to unload at the end of the forecourt where there was a fairly short, flat, grassed area before the ground fell away steeply to the bay. I must have had a premonition of what was to come as I could see the potential for disaster and unloaded the Carrier parallel to the shore line then spun it 90 degrees and carefully backed it into place.
As it was the brakes didn't fail until Rod went to shift it at Jells Park. He was moving the Carrier backwards when the brakes were applied and the pedal went to the floor. We continued rearwards and there was an Italian family picnicking on the ground behind us oblivious to the situation. I was right behind Rod looking over his shoulder and when I saw what was happening the ignition switch was in easy reach so I leaned over and flicked it off. Rod had depressed the clutch pedal but due to an incline we kept rolling back, however, when he let the pedal up we stopped.

Looking good Euan. Putting the tracks on gives a whole new perspective.
