New kid on the Block
« on: April 30, 2012, 07:35:08 PM »
Hi Yawl,
           I was lurking on the weekend when I noticed a couple of post regarding Solar applications. Well to be honest my ears pricked up and I just had to registrar and see what else is on offer.

  A little bit about myself, My name is Mick. I 've been involved in the Automotive trades since the late 80's up until now. From Engine Reconditioning to current, Quality Assurance.

          My tow motor is a LandCruiser 2000-105 series, juiced up with 3 x LPG Tanks and I even left a little room for the Standard Unleaded tank, Usual gubbang'e bolted on, EMU Lift, BlahBlah, Big BF's BlahBlah, DvD-Reverse BlahBlah, Inverter-Onboard Compressor BlahBlah etc etc
You've hear it before, l know
 :4x4:
Toyota Rule  :cup:

         I've recently evolved from the Carry -In, Roll out, Roll up & Carry back out camper as a Kipper to and 7x4 with a heap of Canvas on top, Err-rm a Soft Top today as anOl' Geezer. To the point I towed it to home, from VIC to Adelaide Australia middle of last week. I won't go into what it has fitted too much, with the exception of it has a Stainless thinging that looks real Gurlie bolted to the Tail Gate ??? But I Will save the rest for my first, Real Post to paste up once I take it out, get some picture's & ofcoarse, figure out how to Paste up Picture's. It shouldnt take long, being Brand new, I'm just itching to get it out and test the Articulation of this new hitch.

          Anyhow, While I fumble around the site & mingle a bit, while trying to figure where the right place to Post, and posting etiquette required on this site, Say Hi & Please remember I'm the new Kid on the Block, so be Nice
