Cheers mate  :thumbsup:

Container due to be opened on 17th Oct, but heard they opened a day earlier, had a peak through fence and there she was  :bigsmile:.

Paperwork/red tape and then high winds closing port meant I couldn't get to her till 19th. A friend had large truck to get all parts on.

Nelson city has a population of 40,000 and is situated by the sea. I live 3 miles from the port.

Had Cuda off trailer and up driveway to her new home in no time.  Parts store elsewhere due to lack of space.

Now the re-build begins  :working:  Will start a thread in the rest section.

Thanks to all that have followed my Big Trip   :2thumbs:

I have a tendency to talk to much and may have done the same on this thread, but had such a great time I was keen to share every moment.
