I think once I obtain a better car. I'm going to have a concealed weapon under my driver's seat.

Probably a good idea, this experience has been enough to make me put the line up on the market, im not going to have this happen to me again, plus I want a 4B!

nah dont run from them, straight punch in their face if they come to f**k around with you. i think they will walk away. i dont know if its illegal to put a baseball bat in the car but i have a large tyres spanner. i had an experience when i was at a traffic in northbridge some drunk lady sit on my bonnet. luckily was a lady if that was a male, i will feel sorry for him.

I'm either looking at an AE86 or a A31 Ceffy. Either way a military knife is going in a sheath under/next to the seat.

just keep in mind you get pulled over by the 5-0 and they go to search your car remember to say its there

*snip* i dont know if its illegal to put a baseball bat *snip*

you can be booked (and most likely will be if in an import it seems) for having a concealed weapon.

Always wondered the laws on carrying weapons. If you have to put it in the boot it pretty much defeats the purpose of having a concealed weapon in the first place. I would probably opt for pepperspraying the theif in the face and then "defending yourself" with a cricket bat you just happened to have on the back seat.

LOL at all the concealed weapon suggestions.

I had a BIG wrench in my car wedged by the drover's seat. It looked like another handbrake lol. I was never concerned about the cops..... "oops I forgot to take it out plus, it's a tool (you tool)". It had the parrot beak head so I could choose between blunt or piercing strike. Never needed to use it so I saw no need to peek it. Still prefer the unexpected punch in the mug and a bit of "Melbourne shuffle", if you know what I mean.

My suggestion, keep something like that in, make sure that it is innocent enough and hope you never need it and no one asks you anything.

thats a smart idea, my snap on ratchet might do the job, but leaving it in the car is another thing :/

      Unpeeling the Orange

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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.
