Miss Daisy's Punishment

[borngeek]

Nice work mate, she is looking dainty

[Joe]

Looks good mate. Next time you have the wheels off, paint the centre of the wheel satin black

[fridgie]

Will be doing that soon almost due to rotate the wheels so was waiting for then. Also have to touch up the slider on the driver's side....somehow the powdercoating has been scraped off

[trouble]

looks good Fridgie, well done mate whats next???? lockers????

[dan.batto]

Looks the goods mate!! Liking that black bar work on the blue!

[reeldreamer]

How much was it to powdercoat the sports bar?

[fridgie]

They did the bar and front hoop for $120, not sure how much just the bar would be....

[trumpy955]

She's looking great Fridgie !!! so ........ when are you gonna post the dimensions of your spare wheel bracket so the rest of us can get one made

[ML-VR08]

I reckon you have to paint your flares! Id be tempted to do them in black aswel - would really finish the truck off, but appart from that - it does looks the goods. Maybe a bit of tyre shine is in order aswel....

[slipn]

Paint them black in photoshop first to see what it looks like!
Let me know if you need a hand, i love photoshoping mods to cars!

Ok, so I have now been without Daisy for 4 days in total, it has been a very hard time I tell you

Firstly she spent 2 days at Mitsy getting the 75k service, new starter motor (well, second hand as apparently a new one is roughly $1000 ) and brakes replaced as I had chewed through them within 6months

So it seems mud and water aren't all that good for them

So I got her home and everything was peachy again....only to have to drop her off the next day for a bit more TLC

Firstly, the aerial I got for my UFH had broken in the fitting so I decided a new one was going to be the way to go, as the autobarn cheapy I bought didnt last the distance I opted for a GME one with much stronger spring base

The original


The new one



Then I noticed something when checking the wiring Seems someone has been playing around under my bonnet .......maybe it was the birthday elves ...I'll never know but I found this tucked away behind the battery...



Having noticed this new contraption I tried to find out what it could be there for

Nothing else of interest stood out while looking under the bonnet so I decided to check the interior....Everything looked normal....at first ....then I spotted this



Whatever could these buttons be????

On closer inspection



Very happy with the way they did the work, was a bit annoyed that it took them 2 days but glad they put everything where I wanted it and didn't charge me any extra as they needed new shims for the front diff and they did struggle a bit with the install.

ALL THAT'S LEFT TO DO IS TEST IT OUT THIS WEEKEND!!

Good stuff mate!! The black bars really make that pussy blue Tri look half decent

[Steane]

Noice - another twin locked Triton

Are Daisy's dirty mud wrestling days over?

[kwyjibo]

[borngeek]

[ag9111]

Think a group buy on front CV's might be in the cards soon. Put Geek down for half a dozen and a mixed dozen around Queensland

Unlocked 33's or 34's will kill way more

Will soon be able to test that one soon enough

Garth- I got my Simex 32" tyres (measure 850mm) how you doing.....

[ag9111]

34" Simex's will be here soon so put me down for one of each

[fridgie]

I already have one for each side on order

Just waiting for parts so they can be reconditioned.....

[Custom Offroad]

And here I was thinking you were hard up mate.......can't wait to see her in action!!

Mitch

[fridgie]

This is why I'm hard up, had spent it all before I realised

[Custom Offroad]

Money well spent mate!!! Awesome
