[Fred]

Out of this.............
A Darwin stubby. (the one on the right)

What      No Fosters ?  

[Fred]

You got that right!

I bought an overpriced legally imported and registered car from NSW and I can't register it here in SA because it has a red radio knob instead of a blue one

This is true; however, the regulations say "no VISIBLE aftermarket radio". So get a radio delete plate and put a new stereo in the glove box.

They are getting some weird import laws lately. i've heard of cars being turned down because it had non-factory rims.

Fosters is export, only yanks drink it.

Apparently US fosters is made in Canada which isn't too bad actually. I couldn't tell you personally though.

Well, I'm sick of all the criticism I am getting for the RHD conversion!

I am so over it at the moment, that I considered crushing the thing. But, after a few deep breaths, I thought it through and thought "Stuff you all". I am now going down a different path with the Charger rebuild.....see the photo!

[nvrbdn]

lots of work to get it down to one headlight and no roof. remember to stiffen the frame. plus you can make some money on all the extra parts you wont be needing now.

                  just keep the  build moving along.

[Fred]

No room for a nagging co-pilot 

[Fred]

On the other hand, I think I'll stick with the charger and just use duct tape.  

[440]

Geez Fred, your fast approaching useless post #3000..... You better make it extra special...

[Fred]

Don't worry 440, I'm going to my utmostest!  
I've got to say though........out of those 3000 at least 7 of them have been useful..

[440]

Maybe it should be useful post #3000 then

[nvrbdn]

if 7 of those posts were useful, mabey we can get a moderator to subtract them from his count?

[Fred]

In that case I'm relieved I've only had 7 useful posts otherwise I'd have very little to show for all my waisted hours. 

[Darkman]

HEY!

Can we get back to me crushing my Charger please!

[nvrbdn]

ok then,since its your thread, back to you. how is the upper rear quarter panel problem coming along? did you end up cutting it out?

[Fred]

HEY!

Can we get back to me crushing my Charger please!

Hey Darkman, we were sidetracking deliberately.......... we're  trying to put you off from crushing your Charger.  

[Darkman]

Not yet. I am working on the firewall and floor pans at the moment. The rear quarter panels are lower on the priority list

HEY!

Hey Darkman, we were sidetracking deliberately.......... we're  trying to put you off from crushing your Charger. 

Well, so far it hasn't worked

[440]

With all the criticism why not make it a dual control vehicle? Then it satisfies everyone   

[Darkman]

Nah, I'll convert it to RHD, drive the shit out of it, enjoy it every day and then a big to all the purists who criticised me.

The car at the moment is infuriating me because of the way it was built. At least I have the power to change it all and make it better.

I guess I will calm down a little once the conversion is done and functional

[440]

Pretty full on making a new firewall. One of the guys here in SA converted his and didn't seem to have to go through that trouble.
