Then Ima book in it next week to get the following done to it:
Rear Engine Mount
Exhaust hole fixed
And a engine wash to find the leak
But thats after I put on a pedal on my brake (no rubber atm) put some 2nd hand rear tyres on, and find some parker lights!

Re: Kustom_FTO's Log.
Little bit of an update today.
Had a Sunroof guy come around today to have a look at my sunroof.
Finally after a long 3hours we found the problem. A small part on the righthand side arm is broken.
This is the broken part

If anyone has a broken sunroof or a wrecked FTO w/ sunroof they wanna help me out just let me know
I already sent a PM to dstocks if he dusn't have it, looks like i'll have to try my luck at the wreckers..
But for now he got it shut so yeah.

Re: Kustom_FTO's Log.
Little bit of an update:
I got my RWC today from a place in Redcliffe, not naming any companys but yeah - Lets just say it was a little dodgy, I just want to get it in my name to get it off my chest.
I went in there, they got the rego/vin numbers, talked to the guy for abit, gave him my name / number and he wrote it out. Was there for literally only 20mins. LMAO. Anyway........
I missed the Transport office by 5mins so gonna head there tomorrow morning and i'll be back to using ugly QLD plates ahah.
Will keep you all up to date
