1989 is going on...

I don't know what you guys are talking about but that car is a piece of ****!

[djos]

Hey AJ, when are you going to post pics of your 2nd a500 up and running after the rev5 heart transplant I sold you?

[AmmoJammo]

probably some time after I've put the motherboard in... :p

Btw, you were missed at tonight's Adelaide Amiga GTG, slacker!

Cool, nice car...I like the TX3's...I grew up in the UK and was always a fan of the escort xr4, the laser TX3 is similiar in some ways.

[AmmoJammo]

It's not a TX3, the Ford TX3s only have 3 doors, and the KE model have the four round headlights.



What's this XR4 Escort you speak of?

As we're trying to have an 80's theme here I thought I might post me (a lot bigger me) standing beside my first car in 1987 :-)

[Lurch]

Here's a shot from the 80's of my mates triumph, mint on the inside. A shame we don't have any photos of the inside.

My beast AW11 MR-2 in the back ground.

..and just to keep it on topic :-)

[MelbourneBen]

Nice, I always wanted that shape MR2.

[Lurch]

Miss it a lot. Was originally designed by lotus :-) Although had a nasty twitch so if you pushed it too hard around something like  a roundabout it could do a 360 spin :-)

It seems the floppy drive in my "spare" Amiga 500 was actually knackered...

The guy I bought it from said thats what was wrong with it, but powering up the motherboard gave nothing anyway!

soo! I might try fit a PC drive into the case

[djos]

Lol, so your orginal Mobo was ok after all?
