    Happy camper!

    So a few of you would know that I got rear ended and my GQ was going to get written off. Well, I had an assessor come out and give me a call towards the end of the day with his report. I'll remind you that I only payed 2.2k for my GQ patrol rb30, But spent weeks working on it to get it road worthy and probably about 2k on getting it there.
    Anyway, The assessor got back to me and basically said he doesn't want to pi$$ me around with it, Its a write off and asked me if I was happy with an offer of 6.5k, Was the best ending to my day is all I can say, So time to be on the looking for a 4.2 efi hopefully.
    Save a bit more coin from my tax return and get myself something nice

    No real room to store it sadly, Just gonna try rip as much as I can/want off it and get rid of it.. Would be nice to keep it aside but there's another project in the driveway already
