Ahh, theres always room for ONE MORE!
But didn't I see this one in Vic? (Yep, I do do the KB search from time to time!)
Sickness? Affliction? ....Maybe more of an affection?
So am I affected?
Ahhh, it's all good fun!
Cheers & good save,
Matt.

Going too leave this one near complete for the time being, the ARB winch BullBar will be making an appearance on my daily 4x4 KB. Its sporting a nice locking fuel cap same as Bellett/Florian if any one is interested in buying.

Nice buy. i see its a 4x4.
they are a bit harder to find. My neighbour bought one in 1990 and we repaired brakes etc and she is still delivering loads of timber to local people

Modbury Firewood and Tree Loopers.
Last time i saw her filling up with fuel was about 6 months ago at Holden Hill.
Reckon it was nearly 20 years ago we got her back on the road.
At that time, Metro Holden still stocked most parts new...

Funny how things go. When we first moved out of Sydney I got a job on a farm near Crookwell, a Cattle, Sheep & Goat grazing property of 4000 acres. So what was my supplied work ute? '79 KB 4x4!
Poor little thing did a lot of work, it is a hilly place and there were lots of fences to replace. It amazed me with the hills it would climb in low range. In 4 years I only ever had one problem - a snapped front CV shaft. It was also good 'cause it was light, it would go where the land cruiser would bog. Mustered a lot of cattle in that ute.
Cheers, Matt.
