| Kroooozer | Just thought I'd post a pic of the Prowler loaded into the container....was a bit worrying when I was given these pictures showing a top fuel dragster sitting above on 4 x 2's and web strapping ....fortunately there is no engine in it and I hope that nothing drips on it ....like brake fluid...lets just hope that it looks the same as it does now when we open the doors.

| Howard | Nice looking car. I just got my Prowler several weeks ago. If that car is Orange you will absolutely love the color. it grows on you, and most people love it. Regards, Howard |
| Kroooozer | Thanks....its actually Candy...when it arrives it will go interstate for right hand conversion....so I won't see it for a few months....good timing though as we will be in the US for 5 weeks of that time. |
| TooHipCat | Good Luck with it. I hope it arrives safe. Kind of an odd way to ship it but I imagine the Cat couldn't be shipped by itself in a container.
Please post plenty of pics when you get it home. The Candys are beautiful!!!

Its actually common to ship that way for costs....there are actually 4 cars in that container...a Chev behind mine (not sure what model) and a Mustang above it. They are usually hoisted up with chain blocks or similar and secured from anchoring points on the container roof and blocked out with timber below. Also all 4 wheels of the bottom car are blocked in with 4 x 2's about 3 high....I know they are secure as I have helped him trying to get them out.....there was a car that came in once that had broken free and smashed into another and then came back into its original spot.....container may have been dropped or tipped at some point. |
| Kroooozer | Well last weekend it was driven 14 hrs north to Queensland for right hand conversion...what a buzz driving it there....I think I had around 10 people taking digital picks from there cars from cameras and cell phones....I stayed overnight in Brisbane (about 2 hrs sth of final destination) at a friends place and his wife took it for a drive and came back and said (hope I don't offend anyone)....."If I was a guy I would have a woody now" (not in those actual words though).... |
| ALLEY CAT | Krooozer - Yup,,that is what its like,,,lots of camera shots,  ,,and several 'woodies'!!!ENJOY THE RIDE |
