Look at America for shooting. Where your great Mate runs the show. HE boasted he could shoot someone in Broad daylight and get away with it. Anywhere he goes the security close down the whole area. Ops Normal. Nev

I think many of us KNOW what's going on in our Backyard better than you give us credit for. As a person living here I wouldn't claim intricate knowledge about what is going on in the UK WE get a Fair Bit about the USA. Half the People in the USA wouldn't know where Australia is. When I was in France for a bit over 2 Months I got Practically No News about Australia. Its Out of sight Out of Mind. . Nev

It's the Coalition that's in dire trouble. Now THEY are talking about amalgamating with PHON. The Greens are in trouble internally. People aren't deserting Labor. Stop reading Sky and Murdoch LIES and find out what's really happening, wille. Yes Hanson is on a roll but if she's the ANSWER just what is the Question? She will be doing WHAT Murdoch and Gina want. Newspoll is Murdoch and not that reliable, either. You don't know just what questions were askedin the survey. Overseas opinion of the Australian Gov't's Performance is very different from HOW is Portrayed by the MSM Here. Nev

It won't happen again is a pretty good bet. They found enough skullduggery surrounding the Last Happening involving the Royals. Nev

The GG won't be dismissing any gov't. That was a unique response to the Frazer Gov't blocking supply. I agree with the Rest of your post. Hanson's problem will be internal stability and operating without breaking any laws. Nev

The LATEST BMW's are the Best thing there is According to My eldest who has raced a lot when a bit younger and is still a Bike Nut. They Lent him one for about a week. Some are built in the USA. Nev

Harley Davidson Market a Ute based on a ford F 350 I think. Really Fancy Paintwork. Nev

They weren't all that Poplar when they were NEW.. Maybe they appeal to the Older riders compared to some others these days. There's a 3 and 4 cylinder version. Not everyone likes an engine turning on a fore and aft axis in a bike and the effects of a shaft drive. Nev

HD ute wasn't to bad 4/5 on the floor would make it better and better seats. Have a Look at the Malloo Utes. HSV did some good work here. Nev

A lot of owners considered the HR to be the Worst. Next door to My Cousin was a GM employee at Fishermens Bend, who bought one cheap(er) but had to NOT sell it for a specified Period. A year I think. He Had so Much go wrong with it, some of it quite dangerous so he stopped driving it and sold it after specified time had Elapsed. The Person who Bought it was Killed in it by some fault or other. I think it was the first Model to get Curved side windows and the body ended up a bit wider but the track wasn't. Ralph Nader was VERY condemning of GM products in Australia quality control and Lack of sophistication. Using old(er) less efficient design. The 202 wasn't a great Motor. Stroked to the Limit and a lot of Core shift in the block.. . Also inclined to strip the Fibre timing gear that drives the Camshaft which will bring you to a complete stop without much other damage. That can happen throughout the range and even Chevs had them. Nev

IF you tow things you'll wear them faster. The trouble with a lot of drum brakes they FADE when they get hot.. The discs can get Hard spots and wear unevenly and then shudder at higher speeds. Worn too thin and you can really Be in trouble. Nev

Ramsets are Lethal. Nev

Naturally, as a Mechanic I worked on a Lot of Holdens but never got around to Buying one. Fairly straight forward to work on. I used to like Chevs but you couldn't afford them. Nev

I used to Have to watch out for the Timber trucks in Taswegia when on the two wheelers, plus any kind of weather between New Norfolk and Queenstown.. IF one side has bad weather usually the other side is OK. Nev -
Modern cars do it SO well, and you don't have to work on them all the time.. Your Pride and joy can get scrunched anytime also. Things like Morgans are full of wood. Truly a lot of this stuff wasn't much when it was NEW. Triumph Stags for Instance and the Mayflower at the other end of the scale... Some Lotus Models would be collectable, "D' Type Jaguar Ford GT40, any Shelby. Late 20's Bentley and Vauxhalls.. Motorbikes are easier to store, and transport and you can see all the Mechanicals but a lot more delicate and subject to Monstering by Butchers. Read' Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance'. It's a textbook in some psychology Classes. Nev

He has already stated HE won't be Bound by Her Policies If the electorate feels differently. Instability is what PHON faces if the Past is any Indication. Putting together Policies that can be scrutinised. So far she's getting a dead easy Run, and is well ahead of Herself when there's Only One Legitimately elected Person in the Lower house at this stage. Mutiny and Scrutiny threaten. Maybe she can be overturned from within. I'm prepared to bet NO Labor Person will jump ship. The Nats and Libs are LOST. Nev

The Price skyrocketed after the Photo of Tony Abbot was taken standing outside the front of it. Nev -
A lot of it is not nice at Highway speeds has no Power steering or Air conditioning and dangerous in a Prang and drum brakes that Overheat. If you get a 69 Mustang you can get everything for it, New. It's a classic design. Nev

For a while now, finding the Money for essentials when living on the OA Pension is a big challenge and the Boss and I have a few Medical challenges. She had open Heart surgery about 8 years ago and I have a very thorough Neuro person who is always Making me do tests and imaging. Yesterday we were in Bayside St Kilda and a low flying formation Led by a DC3 flew above and out over the Bay at about 1500 feet with magnificent noises coming from it's radial Motors. That Plane would be well over 80 Years old and Pt Phillip Bay was like a Millpond. Other Places in the World are Being bombed daily by R soles. Nev -
The Later versions Have More Interference on the fit and Pass a Higher load test. Factory ONLY assembly.. Nev

High speed stall on Jets they describe similarly. It's like a shudder. I've experienced it. The road surface has been subject to Compaction. by oscillating Impact forces reaching a Harmonic. As Drivers seek better surfaces the Ridges spread out on the New Path. It appears to Be directional to a Point. IF you drive on the wrong side of the road the effect seems Less. I've Known People to tear the shock absorber Mount Points off the Chassis. I've wrecked 2 rear shock absorbers south of Winton. Nev
