Ah Lachlan me fine Lad.

The naming of you buggy was is a bit like Nuclear Fusion a little started a large chain reaction. Hiko sorta pushed the Bendigo Firetruck thing I backed him for the hell of it and then everyone jumped in on the act. With a bit of luck your thread will be Drowned In Good Intent, with the name thing

Just thought I'd add an image I found. Its of the fibreglassed, plywood seat after carefully sanding it down (ie: flappy paddle sanding disk in a 4" angle grinder). I didn't fibreglass the outer surface of the seat so it would look nice, and experiement to see whether the inner layer would be strong enough.

If you don't crash much then I think glassing the inside of a ply seat would be enough, but for harsh treatment an outer would be wise

From British Comedy of Yesteryear

"The Red Breasted Tit"

I have been at times referred to as "The Devils Courier" Get you there, I will, Get you there Fast, I do An old Kiwi mate from Tauranga NZ, stayed with us last year and I took him up to the lakes for a days fishing, it wasn't until we were on our way home in the evening that I noticed he was a little uncomfortable (Little Old Lady Driver!!) [}:)][}:)]. Lifted the peddle from the metal a smidgen[}:)][}:)]. and a couple of hours later we were home having Tea and allowing him to brag that he had out fished me (BJ +1. Ron 0). The upshot of this yarn is that Bazza/BJ/Baz later in one of his "News Letters" reiterated this story referring to me as "The Devils Courier" !
That sounds like a good name for Machine.

Perhaps "The Devils Courier Van"
