I need to get my GU wagon taken from Cleveland to Algester today if possible, the car still drives, but has been rolled so will need a flatbed or a trailer etc, anyone have any contacts in Brisbane ?

Thanks mate - towy is a mate of Dhucks and just by chance he was here still after we finished up at 5am this morning!!! Very second hand, but better than poor old Stevo though I reckon!!

You can just see the track up to the left of the car, the whole side just caved away as i drove through ,this was the only route to get to our return ferry, i was the only one in the car when it rolled, i had the rest of the family get out and walk across (very glad i did now)

I'm a bit upset with you Steve, thought you would of done more of an artistic shot of the upside down GU.

So what made you get the family get out and what across???? have a bad feeling about it?

Glad 2 hear you got out ok :) now its time for you 2 upgrade 2 GQ!!!

The towy has had an accident on the way there - no joke ... run to top luck. Apparently it was pretty full on ...

Back to the hunt - anyone know anybody else to help Steve??

He wasn't still drunk from your place???

Hope he is ok,

Well if it was a GQ I would just say just pull it back over and drive it home.......sorry can't help out with this one

I can't emphasise enough the wonderful character of this guy - he has just rolled his truck at the end of the trip and true to form when I pulled the camera out, he jumped straight up onto the rig and planked that bad boy!!!

Here's a story - he rolls it, he contacts us and we work stuff out, we get a towy to head over to him for a cheap cash job as a favour, the towy crashes on his way there, we organise another towy, he's been on the drink and can't get Steve till tomorrow, we organise to get Steve back here, we jump in the car and the fuel gauge is stuffed and it runs out before we hit the road!!!! lmao. What a giggle!!!

Good thing you kicked the family out Steve, before the roll over, and good thing there's fellas like Scotty around, What a champ!
Bugger about the towy's luck, Sounds like every one in SEQ was on the turps last night....lol

Glad to hear you and the family are ok Steve!!

Scotty, given your experience at driving vehicles previously rolled, thought you might have taken the drive rather than tow option?

Oh, I see the problem now, Steve probably didn't want 04OFF teabagged. :-)

For future reference, I can get my hands on a tilttray, subject to availibility. I would be the driver.
