Been gettin some love lately with the oval been fucked. A purchased a shed recently an needed to lay a base for it so finally used the ute as it was intended all those years ago.

Lowers it a bit with a cube of crusher dust.

Then again with nearly a ton of pavers too..

It's amazing how the old suspension n set up ran with all that weight in it, the 40hp kept goin like it was nothing an the 53 year old shocks an brakes held up unbelievably well.

Drove up n down he grassy hill to where I was layin the pavers with a bit of trouble cause of the damp ground but got still got there!! Even sat on 80ks without a hiccup.
