Blaze
Have we all seen the Oct 2008 issue of Australian 4WD. Cover story is of a Chevissan towing and Ultimate Camper.. Owner is named Bill.... Rego number bears huge resemblance to Roachies.
Roachie was this story done before the
Birdsville Ultimate transported Nissan event??? Also didn't notice in the story, anything about Gull Wing Door problems or the leaving of oil deposits up near
Pimba..etc etc LOL
Actually mate bet the Chevissan had a lot of elbow grease spent cleaning her to make her nice and shiny for the artical.. Good artical, second of your vehicles to be featured, are you now on the payrole....

No worries blokes......
Just another day at the office....... hahaha
I did make sure the ol' girl had her annual wash (spent about $20- at the car wash joint and even sprayed under the bonnet!!!!).
It was about 300mm after that cover photo was taken that I nearly put the ol' girl on her lid!!! The angle I was on was pretty accute already, but once the photos were done and I started to drive forwards, the front left wheel lifted about 4 foot off the ground ("chest height" as it was described to me by 2 of my mates that were watching). The driver's-side alfoil sidestep got all munched and I soiled my undies!!!!! Luckily she dropped back down onto all 4 Mickey T's and I was able to live another day.
If you look very closely at one of the small photos in the article, you'll see the 2 red poly blocks that I fitted to assist the
suspension, but which actually hastened the demise of my chassis.
Anyway, she's all back together agian....better than new.....
It's all good fun until someone gets hurt; then it's all gunna end in tears..... hahahaha
