VE Series I SS Ute
Washed and waxed the ute after a trip out East. Used the polisher/buffer after letting the wax harden and damn polisher has lost its speed control. Now only runs on number 5 or 6 (whatever full speed is). Priced up a new one and they are well over $350. I will get a estimate on mine being repaired but I can't see it being under $150 for a repair, nothing ever is........

VS L67 Ute, VX SS
Changed the front pads in the ol work ute, been getting a workout towing cars and moving stuff (which it was designed for)
It's been a donor/parts car for my other ute and has never let us down but it's time to start fixing it up again.
Brakes done, ordered the door actuator today, see what else i can get done today

Grr went shopping in sv8...sitting at lights hear nice cammed 304 in vn calais roll past owner gives me a nod.

Yeah mofo' knew his 304 sounded better than my otr/tuned/extractors twin 3" exhaust ls1.

I knew it too.....

Still didn't feel like fitting the good parts to ute when I got home nor get rear worn tyres replaced lol

VS Ute '97 LS1 turbo
Was looking to pick this one up today, but the price just got out of hand.
Ended up going for over triple what I was prepared to pay for an ex impound vehicle with QLD rego plates, no inspection available, unknown if it is runnng or any good, wiring hanging out from kick panels and more.
