Another one for the stable! - Merry Christmas

Well... where did this year disappear to? With 2011 over and 2012 looming ever so closely people are rushing to finish things off.. close up shop.. and take a well earned rest to start the new year fresh. Some people are completely convinced that next year will be the last year we will ever experience and the end will be fall us... Now I don't know about you but I'm a bit of a Science fiction buff... anything SCI-FI I love! doesnt matter if its read, watched or listened to.. if it is good ill have a gander. I have seen movies like Armageddon where the earth is faced by a HUGE asteroid that is bent on colliding with the earth and causing another mass extinction event like what befell the dinosaurs.. mass affixiation. The movie 2012 focused on the earths poles changing and causing a massive landmass change causing everything to flood.. honestly... the person that wrote that story must have had a giant Noah's ark attraction.

In all seriousness with the level of technology that we have developed over the years I'd say that we as a race will have pretty much majority of doom day scenario's well covered... unless the planet just has a massive FML moment and just spontaneously implodes.. if that happens i will shout out "Someone must have googled google!!!!" so rest assured guys I am pretty confident in saying.. well.. nighty nine percent sure that we will make it through to 2013!! well unless aliens invade and we all become slaves or science experiments..

End of the world crap out of the way...

Below we have a video.. very rare that I will post other peoples things on my blog but I thought that i might share with the rest of you my trolling efforts! so check it out! its pretty cool and those Euros know how to drive and put together a drift car! - ENJOY

I must say the Hutchi is my favorite in that video.. whats yours?

Well talking about Hutchi's there is a new plan for Nathans Levin Coupe.. i dont know if its been mentioned before.. but its been in a few photos!! at the moment the little rolla has a S2000 engine and gearbox in it... well thats been the case for a few years now just sitting under the house not being finished unfortunately.

The story goes that Nathan always wanted an S2000 and putting the motor out of one into his Hutchi was the next best thing! until recently.. when he found a decent rolling shell of an S2000 for a pittance that just could not have been passed by! It maybe rough looking at the moment but when we are finished with it... Lakeside time attack warrior much?

Like the Kristens Cefiro Nathan ended up finding this shell out in the middle of no where under a tarp being neglected, the owner putting the power plant into a KE71 wagon. So we arrived to its rescue!!

With Nathans dad in tow with the ute and trailer we banged on a set of wheels... and pulled it up onto the trailer

Might not look like much now but just wait.
Nathan checking out the inside
Honda obviously made the S2000 around these wheels!

Well with the car all loaded up and one of Nathan's sources living in the area we decided to go see Bevan and see if he had any parts for us and that he did... having a S2000 halfcut on the shelf he also had the doors and bits and peices that would make up for what we didnt have left from the original halfcut Nathan brought years ago.


With doors now bolted on the S2000 was now looking more like a car and less like some sort of weird shaped bathtub! basically the plan for this one.. when we get to it is to pull the motor and gear box out of the hutchi and put it in the shell, then build the shell into a time attack car.

As for the hutchi.. all I will say is SR!! HAHAHA

For now.. its the end of the year and like most I am going away.. Off to my home town of Grafton for a well earned rest and some non-stop gaming.. with a bit of work to do on Silvie as well.. if I find the motivation..

So for now Merry Christmas to all and enjoy another video below!!


As always stay safe my friends and drive safely over the Christmas / New year break

- Bev!
