Very very cool brother J!
Just need a pic of the Wasp and Luv together. Don't think I've ever seen that done before.

Thanks Davo, Updated my list, The history of the Vehicle was one of the reasons I bought it. It was a little Italian man who was a concreter and it was his work car. Made sure I got a photo of him with the car!

Nice Josh, a pair of ute backs. V  Shrek had an Italian former owner too, but a tiler. He also has 8 extra years of toiling! I know of one similar near me...hmmm... (Tracy, don't read that). Cheers,Matt.
