    Honestly.......Bloody Lousy! We had really bad weather here and I lost my whole Downstairs area of my home and my 10 car garage including my cars, Ford Coupe, Mazda Rx7 Series 6, Dodge Nitro, Ford Customline and much more Kids Mini Bikes and Quads.......and my dads beloved Triumph Bonneville. Not even mentioning my furniture, possesions etc. Couldnt even mow my bloody lawn :confused:

    3 Days after that my Mom In Law passed from cancer. So Im at home try to recover what ever I had left that I can salvage, and make some kind of home from this mess.

    My baby is definately on hold for the moment....priorities.

    I am looking for a nice everyday driver though? Maybe it just may have to be my Galaxie. Unless any Aussie Hambers have something cool to sell me (Cheap) cause now Im a Scrooge.
     
  5. Wow. Now there is an update. I wish you the best and hope things will get better.

    This was the next day after the storms. There was a lovely pool area under that, I was standing inside my back door way..still around knee height in my home. My garage is stepped down so it was still waist height. Sucks pretty bad but you get that.

    Waaaaaaaaaaah he sold it on me :(. This means the only cool car I have to drive is non HAMB compliant 69 galaxie.

    Sucks Balls.

    Anyway on a brighter note my home is almost liveable again.

    Somebody sell me a sexy car!
