History
To be totally honest my first car was a Daihatsu 947cc microvan that my dad bought me when I was in high school. He was worried I might kill myself if I had anything more powerful for my first car and he was probably right! It did in fact work out very practical as I was a drummer in a band and I could fit plenty in the back. With curtains, carpet, some cushions and a big stereo with separate graphic equalizer (remember them?) it also became a cool hangout for all sorts of "friends"! With an official top speed of around 90km/h I ended up blowing a head gasket as it was constantly max revs in top gear although that was my first home repair job that has continued since. At gigs and parties I would often find it down the road as to people could easily lift the rear and move it like a wheelbarrow....
After driving it around for 12 months i sold it for the same price that dad bought it for and I bought an XY Falcon ute with a warm 302 and C4. I ended up wrapping it around a concrete pylon so dad was right! He probably saved my life...
Modifications
Aluminium bullbar, big stereo, big speakers, tinted windows with curtains, and fat tires fitted to split rims!
