Don't you blokes worry. I'm thinking about the deadline myself Monday. Paul

I reckon you have a leak between the turbo and the inlet manifold I wonder has something been damaged with a bit of turbo fin ??? or maybe not just put on properly If you are making smoking the turbo wont be making boost Paul

stay safe , the hardest part of these storms is the waiting, we call them cyclones in the southern hemisphere and we have been thru the odd one or two and all we can do is get prepared as best we can and wait Paul

is making much boost and does it blow smoke ?? Paul

dunno if you blokes have heard this one before but it's legendary out in Australia these days Paul

Almost finished picture time Anyway the next video is done and will no doubt put you all to sleep and the video after this one is in the editing department as we speak Paul

whats illegal yellow R models or rubbish bin lids ??? Paul

well that didnt turn out anything like my brain thought it would LOL Looks good to me Paul

I havent been on the forum as much as I used to and some how have missed the last couple of pages of the thread Well done to all Paul

here is some KW with 12V71 on heavy haulage in Vic when building Loy Yang power station Paul

Been flat out like a lizard drinking but here we go some more stuff to put you all in a deep sleep seeya Paul

I dunno if this is gunna be nipple pink enough for Swishy but this is as close as the paint shop got And I guess it all depends on who's nipple we are talking about , we tried to get a survey of nipples in Townsville but we found for some strange reason the police was after us pretty quick LOL Anyway the top coat is done and she is dead sexy now and would put a horn on a jelly fish Paul

Bob Australia sent around 60,000 troops to Vietnam Paul

After a few busy days I have managed to get a video together We have started and almost finished painting the outside colour Will it be nipple pink for Swishy or perhaps something else You will have to watch for the next un exciting episode LOL Paul

Well today the 18th August in the US is what we call Vietnam Veterans day in Australia please take a moment to think of the men that gave so much Paul

No video today we went to Townsville today spent a hour or two at Mack getting parts organized then grabbed the recored radiator and got the Princess some stuff to make the door panels Oh and also picked up the paint as well We was all to buggered when we got home Paul

Swish man nipple pink hey , tiz that the bew safety colour in the Beamish fleet ??? Mal would like to give the yellow jigger a good going over but the "Diff" his Mrs I dont think would be in it and wouldnt give him a leave pass for that long Paul

snowdog Im glad you enjoy and hope you all get a laugh not a lot of a snow here Paul

What most people dont know about Mal and I and our families we have been thru a lot over the years We farmed thru the worst drought in Australia's history and thru our jokes and humor and laughter we managed to get thru times that most could never imagine If any of you have seen the old movie "The Grapes of Wrath" with the dust storms rolling every day and the sky turned red Mal and I worked away at farming year after after year and we have never had a cross word just laughs and great times And how is Mal so relaxed, he just dont care LOL , it aint his truck Paul

Well Mal tells me we have turned the corner and its plain sailing from now on Paul

Well the wait is over number 9 is now out and about Looks a bit Beamish like now in battle ship grey Paul

The next video is in the editing department as we speak The problem the editing department people have faulty eye lids and when they sit down to edit their eye lids shut LOL Paul

Mal and Katherine turned up at around 8 last night, it's 2400 km between their place and ours and they did it in two days Anyway Mal and I had a few drinks and since then the editing department has been very unproductive So it's taken a day or so for me to recover enough to get back on my feet Anyway heres were we are up to Paul

Tim I'm not sure how much but I'm sure if I asked the Princess the answer would be to much LOL , at a guess I reckon around $3500.00 for panels Was it worth it, I guess that all depends on which way you measure what things are worth To me it is, but I doubt it is to anyone else Im trying something I have tried before but always been way to ill equipped to even come close to pulling it off, even today Im struggling but its going much better than I thought it would It's a lot more time consuming than what I thought it would be, I would guess even in a proper panel shop this would be a major undertaking and no doubt would be written off rather than fix But Mrs Mack is so much more than a truck to me so I guess it really was never a question of should I ? it was more when will I have the time Paul

KS feel free to drop in at any time and I'll put the billy on or maybe grab a cold one from the fridge if it's late enough in the day If you drop in on the way to work I'll make you Vegemite on toast to snack on going to work Any way next part of Pauls crazy life seeya
