Well I've had a few ute staring with a Zephyr ute in the mid 60s.
Other utes I have owned are: VU Holden SS AUIII XR8 VE Holden Omega FGX XR6 And now I have just put a deposit on another one seeing as I have been uteless for a couple of years. I get it in 10 days' time. |

This may be it; the propulsion died due to:
1. Stomach trouble due to strangles caused by eating Cake. OR 2. Just overloaded with Cake/ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.

There is only one question that needs answering...
 Does it have white wheels?

I’m pretty annoyed with Cav. He wasn’t supposed to announce until I’d finished the “Kerbside Rebuild” thread on it.
