Burning brake smell. Well, that'd be a good thing. It shows they're working

Just thought I would share my 'celebratory picture' with you all

Good on ya mate.

Like the sign. Oh, and looking at your door panels has got me to thinking I should do the same/similar. I am thinking of using plywood with tough vinyl on it so I can sew some pouches onto them. Plywood is slightly softer on skin too for when the car bounces around

Tanalised ply means no rot. And cheap too, about $10-$15 a sheet (packing sheets, not the good stuff).

hehehe yeah good times ahead!! i remember when i first got my license to drive alone. i did a celebratory burnout on the L plates with my Mini 1000 hahahaha.
Just remember you look after the Landys, they will look after you!!
