(let me know if the photos are a problem) Thanks Tez Well i sure as hell dont have a workshop to play with. just a bunch of tools that dont look like they'll fix this problem. Someone needs to invent a communal garage for people who dont have the space/money to operate a fully functional workshop! -...

ok. It's put away, now i just need to nurse it to Queanbeyan to get it looked at. I guess at that point i'll look at the oil leak (dodgy dipstick housing), intermittent black slunk coming out of the tailpipe and occasional smoke puff. Prob all same problem though i guess. Dammit i'm so angry. I gues...

i swear a little part of me just died inside. Ah well i'll get the mechanics to find it. Then i'll have a shot at fixing it.

Instead of starting a new thread i decided to tack on to this one. I've recently bought my mightyboy (manual with 800 conversion), and have been pretty blinded by my absolute love for it as to its problems. The main issue is over-heating. When i was driving it home at 90km/h on it's first drive the ...

yeah fair enough - i'll see ya there! Let me know if you want to meet up beforehand and cruise to the cruise together.

I am tempted to take my little beast along. The only category i could enter is 'female' and, even though i have put my own touch to it, i wouldnt class it as a 'girl's' ute. And dont particularly want to deck it out in frangipani stickers and g strings

Yeah cheers, might hit you up for that - i'd be very keen to check out yours too! Is there a big Canberra MB represent? Haven't seen too many around, except for a couple red ones a few years ago.

hmmm i thought i got a good deal! I am over the moon anyway because there were a lot of people willing to pay more to have to registered one listed on its own, but i snuck in there with a last minute bid to snatch up both of them. :D The unregistered one runs, but the exhaust has been transplanted o...

Yes i did... the MYY 80Y Boys. Are you familiar with them?

If you were like me when i picked up my mighty boy from interstate, you'll probably take your time and baby it home anyway. Take lots of breaks to rest the engine, don't make any deadlines to get home, assume more like 12 hours... and don't be afraid to give tailgaters the bird on the way past! They...

Hi, I've been visiting this site on a regular basis for a few years, dreaming of owning an MB since i was 16. Finally bought one on friday, and i must say i have had a smile on my face ever since! It's hard to get out of, and i can't stop looking at it, or talking about it! Figured it's time to join...
