Then there's one of my beach buggies, a car trailer, another Brumby, my boat... And the Tarago, Ross's wagon (minor work), Rick's wagon (gonna love cutting that car apart)... Umm, and at least one more Brumby for someone else.

The Stig is a racecar driver who test drives cars on Top Gear. To protect his identity he always wears a plain white race-suit and a white helmet. Looks like the guy in your sig on the right.

Thanks riksta,

It is much appreciated . At the moment we cant have to many parts. At the moment it looks like at least 3 M.Y. build ups from scratch, and 2 redo's as over the time we have learnt alot and we wish to give our own cars a fresh going over.
If you dont mind , at the point of needing something and we cant lay our hand on one, i will contact you. Thanks very much for the offer.

I have a allmost complet 82 wag that has some 84 parts on it,and some hand made one off stuff as well, has a lot of rust in the body, have spare doors and bonet and some other stuff just siting there rusting a bit more.
The bodys not worth doing up but there is still good stuff to be had.

Why the bump? The only reason I can see is to re-read one of the first great thread of the subi boys. It was good to read over once again.

And man, you guys can make an MY look mean (new paint, wheel carrier, front bar and those chunky tyres!).

As always said, keep up the good work!

Cheers
