C'mon guys, help me out! I have another kit (Unique 289FIA) that I will be picking up for a customer in the next few weeks. I sure could use the room. I can guarantee that you won't find a better new big block car, with a warantee, anywhere for less. Come and take a look, you won't be disappointed. If you buy the car, I'll even give you money towards airfare!

I'd be interested Bruce but unfortunately I'm in the wrong country, the exchange rate REALLY sux for us here, and the steering wheel is on the wrong side!!!

Please answer a question for me... I know you Mates drive with the wheel on the wrong side, but how do you drive upside down???

Just kidding, I took my R&R from Vietnam down under with a bunch of your Special Forces, I was told I fought well and had a very good time with what I think you call Sherlie's or shelties or... Hey I was Army Special Forces, what did I know.

That's "SHEILA'S"

Mick is right Jim, i think it's sheila's you're refering to! As for driving upside down, it a little thing down here that we call VELCRO! Although I've heard the government is experimenting with magnets in strange ways???

You guys continue to crack me up! Keep up the good work!

JimsGems · #11 (**permalink**) 06-22-2001, 09:32 AM

I love the idea of Velcro and magnets must work OK, because you guy's do OK. I'll be proud to lift a Foster's or... with you anytime, I just have to avoid the fist fights, just have to shot, too old, too tired. I 'm not sure but if I was ever to get to AUSTRAILIA again who knows... lost youth and all of that. There was a time when even the crack of dawn wasn't safe. Good-day

Good old velcro invented here in New Hampshire. It ranks right up there with duct tape. A friend of mine paralysed from waist down in a car accident uses velcro to stick the butt of his pants to a snowmobile seat! I kid you not....

What's a Sheila????

A sheila is aussie slang for a Woman.

any ideas on financing these cars?, self employed with little "discernable" income does not engender a great deal of confidence from my local banks. good luck with your efforts. lorand

Bruce Botti · #17 (**permalink**) 06-27-2001, 06:08 AM

I did get this response from someone who says that they can help with financing. I have no idea if this is a good source or not, but it may be worth a call. Here's his message:

"Good morning Bruce...the program requires a 30% down payment of selling price and a credit score of 680 or better (liberal for this type of financing).
Give me a call at 1-800-923-0875 and I can go over the rest with you.
Thanks,
Van"

JetDog21, I may be wrong but more specifically I could have sworn a “Sheila” was Aussie slang for a City Girl.

JetDog21 · #19 (**permalink**) 07-08-2001, 07:30 AM

I've never heard the term "sheila" used to define a city girl. It may have begun that way but mostly it refers to any female Bob. At least thats my understanding of it.

Hello to All,

Well, I finally picked up the Unique 289FIA that I am building for a customer. It is a very interesting car with no roll bar, no hood scoop, undercar exhaust, and Dayton wire wheels. I will be posting pictures on my site as I go along so stay tuned.

This is a great opportunity for anyone who wants to come and visit to see a kit and a completed car.

Take care!
