The Yellow Peril

Post by Dibsy »

Hello to all DSK members, I have just returned from a raiding party in NSW with a captured Splitty .... just got home to sunny Brisbane with nothing falling off the poor ugly very yellowy bus !
Many thanks to a DSK member for selling it to me and showing me their collection 8)

Ok so i get home with visions of doing a rat resto and spending the money on fast engine / rack & pinion steering etc etc when my wife & kids come rushing out of the house ... stop dead in their tracks, my youngest daughter 6yrs old mutters " oh it's a crummy one " and they all go back into the house ! so it looks like i will be spending my money on the welding and a spray job and then sourcing a 2nd hand engine etc........

Well at least i am a happy bunny with the yellow peril ..... Enjoy !

Nice one mate, I'm sure your wife and kids will change their tune when they go for their first spin in it, and can't wipe the smiles of their faces!
