It's been a while

Post by miller »

Hey all,

Just thought I'd touch base as its been a while since I've been active on here. Life has been busier than ever with my new business growing rapidly and family life taking priority over most things which I dont mind at all. My youngest lil girl just turned 1 a couple of months ago and my eldest is now 4. They are a laugh a minute and loving spending time around our property building chicken coops, tree houses and veggie patches.

Sold the stallion ute to Ferdy a few months ago. I also sold my '72 but the deal ended up falling through. Not sure if thats a blessing or not, I was pretty happy to move it on but I guess it wasnt quite ready to leave me yet :) I haven't touched it for a while but the weather is improving around here so I'll probably take it out soon.
I continue to chip away at HP. The tub sub frame is coming together and I am slowly fixing/patching some rust issues. I hope to have it registered some time in the new year.

I made up a shelter for my '64 and it is slowly being filled with parts for a project later in 2015. Injected 5ltr V8, MQ front and rear diffs, MQ 5 speed are among some of the parts growing inside it. I wont be starting this until the '72 is gone and it will most likely become a promo vehicle for work, we'll see.

Anyway, as I said just thought I'd touch base.

Hope you're all well.

Catch ya!

It's all good news Tim... That's great!

Glad to hear the Patrols are still able to slice off some of your time - A hobby is supposed to be relaxing, so don't let it begin to feel like work - :D

It's great to hear that life is being good to you. We know you'll always be around; you've got G60s in your blood. :D
