OK OK OK........ So shes here and I have seen her......... I THINK IM IN LOVE!!!

Arrived safe and sound, in better condition than I expected nothing a good clean up wont be able to fix.

Until someone decided to hit the front guard with something (were not sure what hit it) and chipped the paint about the size of a nickel and put 2 little dents in the guard   >:(  >:( >:(

WOW was I pissed to say the least!!!

Nothing that cant be fixed, but it just shocks me that people dont respect cars especially a rare car like this one (in AUS)... and they didnt even tell anyone!!

heres the link to the pics enjoy will keep you all up to date on the repair issues!!!

Man that is awesome! I'm glad it made it down there in one piece considering a lot could happen on that trip!

But I have to ask. How weird is it to drive a LHD car on RHD roads? I know my cousin just got RHD subaru (old mail car) and it is a trip to drive it on LHD roads!
