gday fellow maryborough ford club members, havent been to any meetings in a while and i probably have to jog your memorys of me, i had the black ba xr8 ute, anyways had been the operable word, blew the gearbox at the start of the year while ironicly down in nsw buying a gearbox for my coupe, thankfully being a member of racq i was able to send it home on a tilt tray and bus it home from there, ended up being a broken circlip on the 5th gear cluster, wich in turned lunched the gearbox, so i fixed that and was a little disheartend and the missus's wagon was due for an upgrade so i traded it in on a turbo terri, very nice, well that stuck me with her old wagon till i was able to sell it and have just bought me self a f100, bit rough lwb 4x4 but it is sporting a very healthy 460 big block, happy days, the xb has been at a stand still for a while but steadly aquiring parts still, should have my new shed built by the end of june, coupe wont be far from paint by then sweet, progress has definatly been holted by the fact i have changed jobs twice at the start of the year and the recession has really effected exploration, work has been very unpredictable and to top off the year so far the wife will be going in to enduce our 4th baby in the morning as it is running 10 days late, yeehaa, anyway if you read all of this good on ya and hopefully will see yous at next weeks meeting

best of luck to you and the wife for a safe and happy arrival of the little one, make sure you keep us posted.
bit of bad luck with the ute, but cars will tend to break at the least opportune moments.
