hey guys,
does anyone know how many people will drive my car from the time Matt puts it on the truck in miami,
until the time I pick it up in Melbourne?

Shermatt · « **Reply #1 on:** August 01, 2009, 08:56:29 pm »

the transport tuck driver to get it on and off, someone in LA to park it and one guy to load it. Then some one at the other end to unload it. Then you...if you pick it up in melb

hope they keep the 5 litres topped up hahaha otherwise i better be bringing a jerry can

You will need a jerry can anyway, the fuel will be the wrong mix (summer/winter) and will most likely be off by the time you unload it.
Mine was, it started ok, but with a fresh tank of local brew.....it was a different car!

hopefully the servo aint far,
dont think they will let me carry a battery jump back plus jerry can on the plane:f

Shermatt · « **Reply #7 on:** August 01, 2009, 10:24:54 pm »

Rick,

Part of my preshippment is to drain the tank and only leave 2 litres in it...so def bring a jerry

By the way..first time I asked for a jerry can over here the yanks thort I meant a german part...they dont call em Jerrys :w:w:w

Umm..If I can get a chance to go for a lash in it I will.

and by the way, thanks for your offer (that you U2U'd me) for the parts for teh Backyard Blitz thingy

caretaker65 · « **Reply #24 on:** September 09, 2009, 09:05:59 pm »
