...a man's got to know his limitations.... ;D ;D

I'm getting a new clutch and alloy flywheel fitted to the Patrol next week.
Even with the hoist in the shed, it's not a job I feel like doing these days.
I'd have been all over it 10 years ago, but for $800, someone else can do it....

I'm the same with washing cars these days.

A couple of Paki dudes opened a car wash at the local shopping mall.

$45 for a wash, chamis, detail and a interior clean, fk doing it by myself. I can drop it off, hit the coffee shop, check out the hot birds in yoga pants standing on the wobbling deck thing that's all the rage these days they try to sell to fat chicks and pick it up an hour later.

Someone would cut you off and you'd feel like you were tap dancing as you flashed them.

What about 3 on the trees, crash boxes and drum brake front ends with no power assistance.

There were still the silent cops on the main street of Lightning Ridge only a few years ago when I was last down that way. They were common around towns in North Queensland up until about 30 years ago.
