    Yellow HX

    Looks great love the colour, but colour needs to be what the tag says....we should all swap our motors we bought a 308 and want 253...I wish everyone left the Sandmans alone instead of putting statesman stuff into them....it would save a lot of time and effort:neutral: but that was the time, everyone did it....

    Engine

    Our 308 runs on both, we don't want gas as the spare goes where the gas tank is....we are having a 253 built which will run on the new fuel.....

    Back on the road after beeing off the road for more than 6 years by previous owner.
    Passed inspection over the pits first go ... not without work and a few $.
    took out for a drive again today and remembered my camera this time, here are some pics of the old girl...







    still needs lots of work... change front back to origional single headlight, change back to 308, some small rust repairs, remove and make good sunroof, re paint, re chrome or new bumpers, new roof lining (sunrrof), new seats and door tims and more but at least I can drive her for a while while I collect all I need.

    Looks VERY good indeed.
    The yellow appears to be a popular colour on here.
