Gerald McBoingBoing?
Can some here take four 1.0 Ecoboost 3 cylinders, graft them together into a 4.0 liter V12 quad turbo just ... because crazy GRM idea?

That whole set of tools is comically light. Almost feels like plastic toy wrenches
In reply to EastCoastMojo:
That's a fancy foreign number plate you're rocking there lady. Wonder where that came from?
Trucks looking good.

I get so many comments on that plate! I need a Vegemite sticker to put in the window lol. Thanks for my awesome plate (and all the other goodies from 2 years ago)! I still have the Holden badges on my fridge.
You've got a sharp looking truck too, Courier? What year is that one, looks '80s.
I bust on SWMBO watching old crappy B&W movies , but dayum they got cars!
1956 Chrysler dual cowl Imperial? Slippery vinyl seats, great for parking

I take it you guys don't have to run front plates in SC? It's awesome that you're able to run whatever you want as a front plate.
Have you become that much of a vegimite fan? Lol
I've got a few of the stickers you sent stuck up around the place and the bike chain star ended up becoming a Christmas tree ornament.
Mines a 1985 Ford courier, Which is really just a rebadged b2000. Headlights were swapped out for Ford raider headlights, the tub is a 4wd tub which is why the front and rear wheel arches look a bit different. I've got 4wd front guards, hood and bar ends I want to get painted up and fitted this year along with a bunch of other things I need to get done (turbo is pretty high on the list for this year). It's got somewhere over 400000km on the clock, but not sure exactly how many KMs because I swapped out the original cluster for one with a tacho.

Recessive gene, sure. The math does not check out.
In reply to daeman :
Yeah, no front plate requirements here in NC so we can run whatever. I don't usually like front plates, but this one is special. I think it really fits the character of my truck
That star was just begging to be an ornament. We stopped putting up trees a few years ago because cats, so I never got to put it on a tree. Glad it's found it's calling down under!
I love the Courier trucks! We never see them 'round these parts anymore. The B series is the closest thing and even they are getting scarce now (like all small trucks these days).
I'm also a big sucker for the Chevy LUV, especially the 4 headlight version:
In reply to EastCoastMojo:
NC! Ooppss, sorry for the SC.
I love seeing the NSW plate on a LHD truck, it messes with my head.
Hahaha, it nearly ended up as a keychain, but it got hung on the Chrissy tree as a laugh and looked so at home that it had to stay there.
You guys only had couriers up till about 84 yeah? We're pretty lucky here in Australia when it comes to older Japanese cars, well, older cars in general. Little to no snow, no road salt, plenty of dry climate means things have survived well. Mine has virtually no rust, what little there is is in the body, the chassis is perfect.
Edit. Yeah the luvs are awesome, though we hardly got them over here so they're hard to come by
