Getting close to the finish line on the wagon now. Windscreen frame just needs some finishing, then the new windscreen can be fitted.
After that it’s brakes and some electrics and registration.
Love it.
Oh gawd yes. *drops to knees* please santa.
My Mazda 1300 will look like this one day.

Ouch. One of the two Holden HQ’s that collided on the main straight at PI.
I worked on recovering broken racing cars at Phillip Island this weekend, I got chatting to a photographer that was covering the event and this is his site. Those of you who know me will spy me working flat out a few times!
I’m also waiting for him to post some other photos I saw him take, otherwise I’ll some of my own up.
*edit* crash photos are now up. They’re a good example of how the guys behind the scenes, who are all volunteers, make a race meeting happen and fix things when everything goes wrong.
Cheap cars are fun cars.
Had a short holiday to Broome last week, my partner and I hired a Suzuki Vitara from a guy that we used the last time we were there. 50 dollars a day, no strings attached, free chairs, beach umbrella and esky thrown in the back to use. Perfect.
It was worn out, rusty in places, dinged, faded paint and the brakes screeched a lot, but it was the most fun I’ve had in ages. It nearly fell over going around corners, but it got onto the beaches without any problems and the aircon was cold. It reminded me why I was building the wagon on a budget again, to get out there and have an absolute whale of a time.
Something to keep myself occupied when it’s too cold in the garage.
I’ve been following this build and blog for a while now, I really enjoy it (not only because it’s a Mopar, but just some of the detail that’s going into the build up).
