INVESTIGATOR 563

Just bumping this one more time. Rather than up my offer I’m interested in a trailer at whatever price the seller wants. Obviously if the price is high I’d be looking at reasonable quality. Quite a few registered trailers are available 2nd hand but require mods to fit a 563, so thought I’d throw it ...

As of yesterday the car was still parked there :lol: although the pole was cleared away within a few days.

The problem is I’d say in place’s with crowded ramps , once car/trailer spaces are full you are forced int...

As an afterthought, and from my own professional experience. All these new roads and bypasses being built are not maintained by fairy dust either. With new and bigger roads come new and bigger road maintenance bills. Also of course the old bypassed routes still need maintenance. Expect bigger state ...

I know the principle of user pays is becoming normal but it seems a case of “if people want new facilities someone has to pay for them”. Im ofte...

We have been up at Fingal Bay Port Stephens for a few days. The scourge of paid parking has now extended from Nelson Bay out to encompass the smaller satellite towns. This doesn’t worry us normally as we are staying in the caravan park and walk everywhere but apparently regional councils are now sta...

Andrew: “also left the original bulb dome lights on their separate circuit (and fuse) as backup, and have a nice traditional glow). “ True, sometimes I miss the old fluorescent ( I couldn’t spell it :lol: :lol: j tube that was originally in Spritzig II. The swivel LED tubes I’ve got now are great bu...

I’ve no idea what they can provide but it’s a case of vintage ts owners like ourselves do not have lots of options. If anybody needs to get bits from them please let us know...
