Post by george »

:yahoo: Finally I am back in the clan
Safely home.Thanks again to Henk.The bakkie was excatly like he said.No even better.Thanks Henk.

The one thing I miss about the 2.7 is you can just drive it without worry.When you need to overtake drop a gear and plant it.
With the KZ I am constantly looking at the heat gauge and revvs and think about EGT. Will probably get used to it.
Now to test everything :celebrate:

Just one point of order, George ...... you were never, not even for an instant, "out of the clan". You were, have been all along and still are a member of 'the family', ,,, :thumbup: ... so excuse me for not welcoming you "back". :D: ;-)
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.

I managed to do a few things.
The one seat cover was torn so I gave it to a car trimming place that replace to worn sections with new material.R200
The covers was faded so I dyed them again.Unfortunatly I could not get enough dye and it came out a bit lighter.
