Great progress. Heat shield sounds good too.

Great to see you've finally got Olly home. Hoping the settling in period goes smoothly for you all and he doesn't do too much digging!

Sounds like you dodged a bullet with the hot weather. Great to know the 'new' Mustang is working well and reliable, always a worry when you buy an old car. I do remember a great piece of advice that you're buying the owner as much as you're buying the car.

It's easy to say, but it's worth only taking criticism from people you value enough to take advice from. It would be great to find a worthwhile 'home' for all that research. Not sure what that is though.

Beautiful dog. Hard to say no to those puppy eyes!

That pipe looks amazing. Will you need to run some kind of shield or protector for rego?

@Geoff289 I actually managed to do a telehealth phone session with my local doctor while I was recovering in the hotel in Queensland. He gave me a script which was messaged through to my mobile, and my wife was able to get some meds from a nearby chemist. Great system. I'm similar to you, I've...

Thanks @Geoff289. We're both pretty sure this was our first bout of covid. Most of the times we've had colds we've had to get tested for one reason or another (mostly work). It was just like a regular cold at our end. But when my mum and step dad got it last year it hit them pretty hard, and the...

Thanks everyone, appreciate the support and kind words. At the end of the year I decided to spoil myself and buy myself a new mountain bike. It's been about 15 years since I got my last one, and the old bike was just a bit long in the tooth but most importantly I couldn't get it to shift...

Lyndon, Irene looks pretty stoked with her new red step through. That's going to look great as the feature piece in the new loungeroom :ROFLMAO: Looking forward to seeing plans and construction on the new place!

Congrats on the anniversary of leaving your old work. Not entirely unexpected when a place like that doesn't change, but still frustrating too. Sometimes you just need to look after yourself and your own wellbeing. Great to see the new puppy is settling in well too. Happy new year!

Happy new year Geoff!

Lotta thinking and considered fab going into all of that. Nice work, and happy new year!

Appreciate your kind words and support @Bob Heine. The world could do with more curious and friendly folk like you. @Geoff289, that's terrible about your sister in laws sister. Traumatic for any family to go through, and as you outlined, anniversaries can be particularly stressful, and the...

Hey mate, so sorry to hear about the loss of Faych. I was devastated when we lost our foxie Tia a couple of years back, and honestly I was in a funk of a headspace for a good few months after she left us. The house felt so empty and quiet afterwards too. It was about a year later we got our new...

A non project update this time around. My dad passed away in late October. We knew his health was getting worse, and the care staff had liaised with us and shifted him to a palliative care plan. He passed away peacefully with no discomfort, which is what I think most of us would want. The...

I don't proclaim to be a Mustang man, but that fastback is gorgeous. Congrats on the new purchase. I can see you don't even need to change your username! :ROFLMAO:

So frustrating dealing with poor tradies, particularly when as a non trained lay person you can literally see the gaps they're leaving behind. At least the good news is that you've picked up on it before the sheeting goes on. Overall progress looks good though!

Lots of nice updates since my last visit. Making nice progress. The exhaust and rollbar are particularly great. How's the new bub settling in?

I'd love a little LC or LJ Torana. I finally got around to dressing up my rocker cover. You can definitely see the inspiration from the pics above starting to show here. Lots of time masking and cutting, but not too much clean up require. Has come up a treat and will fantastic alongside the...
