Hey boys,

Just want to get your ideas i am looking at getting a ute right, but the bloke said his split up with the mrs and he is now in UK. Now i have done a revs check on it and its all sweet but the thing is he wants a deposit of 35% from a $25.000 sale i know its like around 9g's. The question is he wants me to do it through western union money transfer i have the details and his name and i tried to ring the contact number his given me and its saying its disconnected so i emailed him and asked for another contact number, i just want your opinion guys on whether his legit or a shonk

let me here it!!!!

When I was purchasing my bike recently, a mate at a dealership did a 'vcheck' for me (he said it usually costs around $30 but I got it for nothing), apparently it checks that the vehcile has never been written off and it covers the whole of Australia, he also said to do a revs check to make sure theres no encumbrance and revs will only tell you if its been written off in NSW. So anyone thinking of buying a car keep that in mind.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
