The FTO ute is finally alive again

. It has spent the last 2 bonfires on the sidelines, but not any more. Fired up today. Small hickup when I realised id forgotten to reconnect the oil transmission lines back up and ended up with the majority of the gearbox oil on the ground, but apart from that, all good. Just need to hook up the exhaust, bleed the brakes and its pretty much good to go.

Feel like a bit of an idiot admittingthis, but battery wasnt good enough and jumper was too flat (I think). Charged another battery up overnight and it kicked over fine. Bloody loud without the exhaust hooked up, but was idling smoothly (if not quietly) at around 1K.
