Title: Found a twin
Post by: The General on March 01, 2015, 10:38:46 AM
Guess who has a dead set twin overseas?  (Even the mannerisms are the same). Can only be certain there`s a genetic connection when I get him ta take his shoes off!  (He`s also got an FJ and tells me his Dad owned FJ`s as well as a 79XS!)

Here`s how I stumbled across him!

And here I was thinkin.....because of the "Brock....(as in Peter Brock)....... linky thing"........how and why in the hell would an American guy get a hold of a FJ Holden? :o ;)
PS .....the link to the FJ forum requires log on details.............you forgot to post your user name and password so we can see what info you linked to for the story. ;D ???

Bummer...never thought of that. Guess I can`t publish those details, but it costs nothing to register & Lurk with zero privacy questions required....Lots of common probs and remedies. The FJ Rally is march 14th at Grafton Crown Hotel. All XS crew really really welcome.
...Still cant get over that resemblance!

Doug...you sure you didn t do that to bump the FJ membership... :o ;D ;)
Finally cracked the code to this story and well.......I m jus not seein the resemblance.
I ll have a few drinky poos and take a look later on through the beer goggles. ;D ;)
I think MRS Steptoe should be the one to make the call on this one as to whether she would notice and be able to detect the intruder....... if they were to do a swap. ;D

I cannot tell a lie I've sold my soul to the other side. Yet another project bike. Have to go to Newcastle to pick it up next week.
