Bump it up.. Mighty Boy was moved this morning from shed (started first go again) to the side of the house as our new car has arrived. Also when I moved it I noticed a crack in the windscreen that has just appeared from nowhere. I will give it a clean up this weekend and post up some up to date pict...

FS: Mighty Boy, Ipswich area (Brisbane)

Mighty Boy For Sale, I have only had it for about just over 6 months, the motor is really the only thing that requires attention, I overheated it and have a feeling the head gasket maybe shot, but don't know for sure. A good sign from the engine I guess is the fact it still starts first go, but stru...

Hey iceman,

I am very keen, I am unsure how much they are worth, how much did you have in mind?? Also was it running good before you removed it?? ie, no smoke or leaks etc..

Cheers, Shane.

F5A needed fairly urgently..

I need a running F5A engine if anyone has one lying around, I really need a reliable not smoking F5A, I'm in the Brisbane area if there's one out there.. My Mighty Boy is my daily driver for work so the missus has the other car during the day. Today I drove the Mighty Boy down to the Gold Coast, che...

Well by the sounds of it you are pretty desperate for a hatch and are unable to source one in your local area, yet your not desperate enough to have one transported down to you, so how badly do you want one again?? You should think yourself lucky that people are responding, not necessarily with info...

If the seats fit straight into a mighty boy, I might take them aswell, got any pics of them?

Actually, could you email me pics of seats and motor to shane.kylie@hotmail.com
