Oops... guess I needed a roll cage
« on: May 17, 2006, 23:41:48 »
This is what happens when you drive up a hill, get almost to the top, dip the clutch, roll backwards and then lamp on the brakes.

And before anyone says anything... no I wasn't driving, but I was in the truck.  Amazingly it started and ran no problem.

So now I need a roll cage and a body swap - anyone got the former for sale?[/img]
If it aint broke.... break it so I can upgrade it.

If you don't like what I say, please proceed to bang your head against the nearest wall until any such memory of my comments have been erased from your thoughts.

Remember it will come in handy even if you never use it

Right okay guys, I'm sorted now thanks.   :D  Nice softop SJ with an internal roll cage over the A and B posts slopeing back to the C posts.  

I'll tray-back it and plan to rip the undergear off it and go for a full coil setup on all four corners as I'm fed up of having me teeth knocked out at every matchstick.  

All I need then is some more of Woolworths fiinest green paint and Shrek will be reincarnated.

Just need me shoulder to stop hurtin' now.   :cry:
