I wouldn't let a stray dog sleep in that wagon.

 

The RSPCA would have me up for unnecessary cruelty.

 

You wouldn't even use it as an artificial reef to breed fish, cos they would all have two heads.

 

Best to tow it with a long rope into a pine forest and let nature take its course.

Postie bike classic 110 cc of pure horse power Not

 

They go good when you bore and stroke them to 250cc or 310cc. I had an ATC90 trike engine built to 250cc. Ran on methanol and tore centres out of the tyres.

No probs Ian,

 

Hi Jacob,

 

The bike is called a Rickman,i,d never heard of one,but apparently only a few made using a Kawasaki engine,the frame was very well made for something so old,i,m thinking it would be made of maybe chrome moly  or something good as there were some thin pieces used.I found it very interesting.

 

Some of the old bangers were very fast on the open road,we all played up a "little" lol

Sure does Jacob,i was interested about the quality of frame for such and old dinosaur.

 

Been flat out for months chasing a R33 skyline for my daughter,picked it up yesterday,and i was singing,'i,m turning Japanese ,i really think so"while driving without iPod connectivity ,did not have the cord lol.

 

Its got all the gear and handles unbelievable for such an old model car.

 

Anyways,some toys for the boys.

That SIII RX7 is a good thing to have. A VN-VP V6 and 5spd fits perfectly.

Glad you enjoyed the read Maz.

 

 

 

Thanks Big Jack,interesting.

 

But a huge thanks goes to my good friend Craig wot179,i needed a favour done in the upper part of Sydney,needed some spares for my daughters skyline,Craig got straight onto the job.

 

Some tool had this complete R33 body on gumtree for $700 or nearest offer,Craig gets there and he wants $1200,then its $1000.Im already on road heading south,get call,i say no way.Turn around at Tamworth and head back home,the dickhead wrecker rings me after 10mins with some story about legally being able to sell car after midnight.I say sounds dodgy to me,he asks what would i pay,his price drops to $800,i basically tell him he is dodgy,and its scrap metal and i,m not interested,he still tries to get a deal,so i tell him off,He won,t ring me again!!

 

Thank you very much craig,you saved me a very long drive.

 

lol,embarrassment  I had to drive one.

Hi Alex,

 

Glad you enjoyed.

 

Wot classic mate.

 

 

Anyways,I've been playing RB25,s and learning about skylines for some months,only cause the daughter likes cars,which has been a big shock,but better than netball all weekend.Got her this one ,no turbo as Green P platers can not drive turbo cars,goes real good and great handling.

IMG_2914.jpg

 

Also bought this turbo car which i got from a paddock near by,needed a good buff,stuck on a big intercooler and boost tee,and did a cams day at tamworth,$25 all day with a instructor.The young fellas are real helpful when a girl is involved,lol.She had a huge spin off on main straight,dust and shit everywhere,i was real proud that she had that much heart,and lost it under boost.

 

IMG_2721.jpg

 

IMG_2718.jpg

 

Then off  to the week of speed at gunnadah,drags.Did very well,consistent,good reaction and did her first  big twin legga launch .

 

IMG_2857.jpg

Back to old cars  now!!
