Oi Roothy 2

Oh oh, what's happening this time?

By: Roothy  |  November 4th, 2010

Just dropped Milo out to Ben at APT Fabrications in Tingalpa - why? Because I reckon it's time we got a bit or protection in the old girl. I built a square tube 'body support' into it years ago but as the trips get tougher and Milo's body gets looser - like her driver, the Brake reckons - the old girl needs a whole lot more. The little roll in the High Country didn't have much to do with it, she only fell over that time. But there's been enough scary moments to get me thinking! Anyway, we've got some big plans so I'll keep you posted - cheers, beers and no fears, Roothy

Whie there ay it you'd better get the boys at APT to fit a secret compartment to put the pies and cream buns into Roothy . So the handbrake doesn't find them.

Hey Roothy, was wondering if u know anywhere close to me where i could get reasonably priced parts for a "90 model na pajero wagon. We need back seats as the family just got 1 person bigger and even though he's going to be in hospital til at least january, hubby and i have 3 other ankle biters between us that need a reliable old beast to get around in. A diesel engine would also solve a lot of our problems because we love going and trying out as many of ur 4 wheel driving tips as possible, especially when it comes to water crossings.

I hope that protection is not a safety thing. It would be acceptable if it were for other things like, mounting stubbie holders or a place to hang your Russian fur hat! What about using it as a compressed air reservoir too? No point having a device that only does one job - make it work for a living
