If I wasn't home with 3 sick children (yep 3) I could help you out with the building process.

Well... builder has been found and should be starting very soon :cool:

Once the office/engine room and lunch room are built then it's time to move everything, so if I could please call on all that have offered to help with the move, could you please do me a favour whilst I'm away. Could you please look for any crates, containers, boxes, etc.. to help pack up and make things easier to move. I'm planning on making the move on the 27th and 28th of October.

Many, many, many thanks everyone

ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHH !!!!!!

I decided to change PJ's carby back to the 32/36 as I'm coming up to tow trailers and fill my tray to beyond legal weight limits. as I would like to not leave a trail of fuel and soot everywhere I go :)

Everything went well, Ive started and restarted to check for fuel leaks and air leaks now for some reason my power steering pump is now rather noisy like it is empty. Of course I checked the lines against the body etc but the pump is vibrating.

WTF WTF Im still coming by the way.

I will be up either Friday afternoon or very early Saturday morning AAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGHHH

I gather you have checked the pump by looking beyond the filter (lifting the filler filter up out of the tank) and seeing the fluid level.

Yes that was the first thing I did when it started making the noise :)

won't be able to trouble shoot until Thursday when the little angel is at daycare.

Good.. well have it fixed on Thursday and get up here bright and early on Saturday morning.. you have lots of work to do :)

Oh.. and btw.. can you bring up as many boxes, crates, containers as possible? I can give back to you once we have moved (this is for anyone coming to help)

Many thanks

Wow.. what a trip home.. Can not wait to get back to work for a rest

Well after all the help from the gang and getting the place in a way that I can see parts of the floor, we started building the office. Something you think should take a day or 2 maybe???? yeah right.. what a mission!! Well the frame is up and thanks to Dutchy (aka Scott) he will be in whilst I'm away to build the walls and ceiling, then it will be just a case of getting some flooring material for the mezzanine floor.

Yep i bet you will be glad to get to work to have a rest lol. You must be knackered after that marathon run.
Everyone did a awesome job and it was great to put some faces to the names i see regularly on the forum.
Naturally we will be running a sweepstakes on how long before you fill the shop up to the gunnels. ( Thinking of the tv show "Hoarders ")
So a huge thanks from me as well for finishing off the outback for me. Its a great cruiser to work. I took your advice and changed the oil to 15/50. there has been an improvement in the clatter. we have named the car C.C ( Chaff Cutter lol ).
Cheers Pete

Thanks Pete.. as long as I don't get too many EJ16 in there, then I'll be alright.

I have a lot more room and a lot more stuff still to be thrown out. I booked another skip bin but it didn't show up before I left :(



On an update.. I must say another big thanks to Scott (aka Dutchy) as he has been working flat out on building the walls and ceiling.. check the out the latest pics...
