Passenger door and front valance panel

Hi guys, I'm chasing a passenger door (skin only, don't need the interior bits) and the valance panel that goes below the front bumper. If there is an aftermarket option that replaces it, I'm happy to consider it.

Re: Our epic journey - Adelaide to Perth via Uluru in a MB!

Hehe I did have plans to restore the MB but it looks like the plans may be on hold now that I've bought a block of flats with a Mira attached to the front...

Re: Our epic journey - Adelaide to Perth via Uluru in a MB!

We raised $5500 or thereabouts, which wasn't too bad seeing we've been doing it for a few years - always harder to hit people up for donations after the first run! Next year is Perth to Darwin which is a long haul, the car has definitely got another rally left in her, but I might take a break for a ...

Our epic journey - Adelaide to Perth via Uluru in a MB!

Some of you may remember I was looking for a Mighty Boy late last year for $1K or less to compete in the Sh*tbox Rally, well after 6 months of searching we found one with an F8 motor, perfect for our needs. Well I'm pleased to report that we made the entire 3600km journey with nothing more than a br...

Re: Mighty Boy wanted - will look Australia wide!

Brayden, cheers for the support! We suspect it was a combo of high speeds, heavy loads and really crappy fuel in Innamincka that broke it. We know we're up against it trying to find one for $1K, but my co-pilot is a mechanic and happy to do work on it to get it ready. We've scored sponsorship from J...

Mighty Boy wanted - will look Australia wide!

Hi guys, I'm chasing a Mighty Boy for next year's Shitbox Rally, raising money for the Cancer Council. This year we took an 850cc Daihatsu Move from Melbourne to Cairns via the bush (well, we attempted to, it died in outback Qld), and for the 2013 event, we want to take a Mighty Boy from Adelaide to...
