I couldn't believe how many c10/20/30s there were in country Arizona just lying around. 90% of them straight with no rust.

Hey Kev

Thanks for sharing ,I thought I was either going crazy or you had bought a second ute !!,

Looks like a weapon - with air con you must be getting old ,did you buy it from states?

I bought it of a mate who's had it for 6 years , he rebuilt the engine and blinged it up but lost interest as he had to many toys .
Not sure if the air con is staying or not yet it needs a bit of work to get it working properly

Looking sweet Kev did that plate "FA T 73" come with the ute?

Love the "Mumbo Racing" sticker are you sponsoring yourself now lol?

The Tory does do more than 80km , it actually does 202km in 10.5 seconds ;)

No the FAT73 plates didn't come with the car as it had never been registered in Australia , American cars have short number plate reassesses so you need short plates the gold one had FAT 89 so I went FAT73 with this one ;)

All my cars have MUMBO racing stickers

Truck went good last night surprised a few with how quick it is for such a big truck but still not happy with the tuning side of things will just take a little time but I'll sort it ;)
