Yeah Rook3,as Bart said we eventually moved here, in September 2006.
It wasn't cheap to ship the car here,but we also shipped a lot of our stuff in a 40 foot container along with the car.
I like your comment about the German TV shoot being 'cool'! mate you should have been there it was freezing!LoL

Ok I see that purge is requesting pics so here's a couple more..

My son Grant on the camera and Ian's son Chad was on the two way radio calling action!

Nothing really special about this shot but there is something about the lighting that caught my eye! this was taken by Ian and looks a bit more 'moody' in comparison to the others he took at the same time..or maybe it's just me!LoL

Thanks again chaps,actually I should be thanking Ian as he took so many shots I never knew about until he sent me the disc with them on and I was just gobsmacked with the majority that were on there,not because they were of my car but because he seems to have a knack of catching a great natural shot,so thanks Ian for making me look good on here!LoL

Bart,I'm 44 in a couple of months,we started very young yes but there was method in our madness! We deceided to go through all the hardship of having a family young and struggle back then,now myself and the wife can go and do what we want without having to worry about dragging young children along,nothing wrong with that for some but considering what I get up to and where I end up these days it's just good that we can get up and go and not have to worry about anything but ourselves!
Funny you mention about washing the car Bart,I noticed on the morning of New Years day when I got up that someone decided to write the most original statement on my passenger door window! it said 'Wash Me'! but to add to their joke they had started to relieve themselves on the door! I found this highly amusing as it only added to the look of the car!LoL so thank you very much p*sshead whoever you were! :D

A few years ago while riding to work in the early morning, still dark and all, ya get the picture? I was following this white van, in my headlight I was able to pick out in the filth and grime on the back doors of the van someone had written "Clean me" very original as you'd expect, but something else had been written bleow it. I accelerated and got a bit closer and peered out of my visor trying to make it out the rest of the grafitti. Finally I was able to piece together what it said it was. "I wish my wife was as dirty as this van!" I started laughing out loud but the next line just cracked me up, someone else had written: "She was with me last night!"

It was about then that the van's brake lights came on and I had to concentrate on not adding a biker shape to the other back door.

Very funny, still get's a chuckle from me when I see "Clean me" written into the dirt. Pissing on the car sorta disappoints me though. I mean why would a moron want to do that eh? Sheesh.

Lovely pix Adrian the moody one looks especially good. Almost like the Interceptor's looking out surveying its kingdom below. That's gonna be my next desktop wallpaper I think.

Thanks for some great photos Ian and Co.

You and Biker are lucky Adi,most people write 'Crush Me' in the dirt and grime on my p.o.s 97 GMC truck :lol: Say Adi,do you have the custom military car cover for your car yet?Maybe if you camp out by your Falcon and eat cans of dogfood in front of god and everybody,no one will piss on your car anymore as they'll all think you've gone off yer rocker :lol:

At one of my previous jobs the PCB's we were making were transported in a little white truck. Sometimes the truck was completely gray of dirt. Than we used to write "Also available in white" in the dirt at the back.
"UNDERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" is how far you take the fence with you.
