I haves always done all my own work Driving the little spray truck is just like driving a mini minor, you can't help but smile It's so ridiculous but so much fun, 4x4 diesel, 5 speed over drive tipping tray and tiny I think the R model cab is more spacious ha ha Paul

Struth these birthdays just don't stop coming around Happy birthday Mackey58 Paul

Been up and at it for Saturday Sprayed weeds last night after fitting a new slave cylinder to the spray truck

I put all stainless steel bolts nuts and washers in my mirror brackets and aircleaner straps Stops the rust stuff in the future Most of the stainless and chrome trim cleaned up okay, not show quality but it's original still Paul

Bob would be easy to find with the smoke signals Paul

A bottle of Bourbon a fire and get the tyre off the rim and keep the mosquitoes away Tyre on the fire The perfect night Paul

I watched this today, as I recall this era It was awe inspiring to all around the world The world dared to dream and have a crack at the impossible Today there's Bonnie Blue shagging 1000 men in 24 hours How has this happened The bloody woke brigade lowering everyone to the lowest common denominator Learning fractions at school has paid dividends These fine men inspired the world to be the very best it could be I reckon JFK was like that, be the very best you that you can be And yes, watch the whole video, so much more interesting and worthwhile than the click bait rubbished pushed Good job Buzz Aldrin and Zoey What a wonderful world we once had were we inspired all around us to be the best they could be I do often think of Paul Harvey's words "I believe in my god, my country and myself" Paul

I will search and see if I can find the whole interview Paul

If you are still struggling and with no result I know of a way that works really well and it doesn't involve burning the tyre off But the tyre is no good for anything afterwards A Stanley knife and a good blade Just cut the wall off, I have done this before, yes it does work I cut closer to the tread side first Then once the tread is off Cut the tube and rust band off Then with whats left cut the wall down near the rim off Now there's only the bead left Rim and the remaining tyre are on a bench while I do this bit With a wire wheel on your angle grinder, start on the inside of bead The wire thats in the band appears quick enough, cold chisel or angle cutting disc and cut the bead The remaind of the tyre drop pretty shortly after that I have needed this on crappy old farm gear thats been sitting full with water and mud and crap and the rims rusted and expanded I'm sure all you muscle men don't have to go the limp dick way like this, but for me, well needs must occasionally Paul

It has a padded dash ? I have never seen a padded dash in R model A few different people make new dashes, but if your not in Australia they will be of no use to you as they are RHD Paul

Torsion bars are much better if they are working right Nice and simple Trying to tilt a little Isuzu last night, my ring was fairly hanging out Got all the stuff from behind the seat out and chucked it on the floor Straight up and over Paul

That is good news Spill timing is fairly good but like using a set of feeler guages or calipers, it's a fairly individual thing Great news it worked for you Paul

Good stuff Any happy snaps or your building suspense ? 😉 Paul

Diesel is really good for tough beads Softens old rubber, squirt some diesel in there, and work it a bit Paul

They were very common back in the 60's and 70's in Australian yards All painted amd dolled up with flowers in them Paul
