Some useless info for you, but my woman's great grandad built that War memorial, aswell as numerous other historical buildings around Freo

I feel like a better person for knowing that steve.

Fascinating, my heritage also stems from Fremantle and Perth pioneers. I love stuff like that, I won't ask what family name but thanks for sharing. Fitted the bull bar today, and fitted an 83L fuel tank this arvo. pics tomorrow.

It closed in 1991. Edgar Cooked Perth first serial killer was the last man Hung in the gallows in 1964. The murals in the cells by an indigenous fella family name Collard are still preserved today and considered a local treasure. Funny, I'm related to Jack Hume, we could be distant cusins. ---------- Post added 10-06-11 at 00:32 ---------- Quote: Originally Posted by satansLBO [View Post] It closed in 1991.

His family name was QUARTERMAINE sorry,

91 really!? I think the aboriginal side of my family got to wa around 50 years ago and lived around fremantleish. In actuality I have zero noongar liniage. All Eastern states so I have no real claim to anything in wa although I have walked a couple of stages of the bibbulum track and have done a couple pretty epic poos in the bush.

In 88 there was riot and prisoners burnt the roof out of divison 3, i learnt this on one of the tours at the gaol. The wardens say the riot started as there was a heat wave in Perth at the time, however others say it was a break out diversion for inmates invcluding bank robber "the postcard bandit" Brendon Abbot. He mastermined the riot by convising inmates to collect petrol from the lawn mower in their drink bottles. He didn't escape untill nearly two years later when a he and an inmate climed and jumped the high walls dressed as security gaurd uniforms they sewed themselves in the gaol tailor shop. Here's the bull bar (full front bumper replacement).

Love it mate, all the best on your journey

Good Luck brother, Wish I was heading away from this weather... I used to live in Tom Price. Magic spot this time of year! Good Luck. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Spotted this yesterday in bunno also! Wicked ghetto on the ceptors!

Cheers, looking pretty ghetto, I went over a curb in busselton today and dent the shjt out of the dump pipe. Lucky its 3" diameter. Even in country towns lowered city spec springs have your chasis, tranny and exhaust hitting all sorts. So, I just booked it in for a suspension over haul. "Country Pack Suspension" was an inflatable Monroe gas shocks in rear with a risen spring height. As this car was a country pack car, so it will be again. Should be good to get some mud and miles underneath it, but now nut leaving until this is done and a proper service.
