Cheezy racing built middy- History

[Mosko111]

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone knows of the history/ build up progress and races the tiger mica (goldy) coloured Middy cruiser??

Have seen some photo's but no video, just wondering if someone would even have a bit of footage of it?

[hulsty]

Didnt know it had ever been finished and wheeled under its own power? I have seen many photos of it being "nearly finished" then sold.

[Mosko111]

Well it will be finished and raced by next year! Haha

has been driven under it's own power, just wanting to do a bit of a history run down on it, like who did the bulk of the work and if it was done properly

[loosecanon]

you looking at buying mosko?

[Mosko111]

Not sure yet, want to make sure there won't be any bad suprises if I did get it,
have you seen it in person before Loosecanon? Or know much about it?

[SCANAS]

I thought you where selling up and buying a house? Does the other half know of your intended purchase?

[Mosko111]

Haha, yeah she does!! I got onto a shutdown for work, so in 3 weeks time will have the deposit saved for house and I'm allowed to get a new rig

And will be just selling my cruiser to pay for this one, so won't really be losing to much money to Mr Debt..

if you dont want it ill buy it if its in the same sort of shape it was back then. could you PM me the contact details if you decide not to buy it? Thanks

[Mosko111]

It's still not finished from what I can gather but I'm 95% sure it will be dropped to
my house mid next week mate, will let you know if anything changes though!

If its the one I think it is I did the engine wiring on it a few years ago. At that stage it was at suncoast 4wd centre. Maybe bluey may know a bit of history, He did some work on it

[Mosko111]

I think that may be a different one mate, Bluey did tell me that someone who used to work for him when he had the workshop for custom Offroad had a coiled middy,

This one has a 5ltr in it so if you did work on a coil overed middy with 80 series chasis, then I'm wrong haha,
it's still in the Brissy region ATM aswell

[chunderlicious]

ok, be sure to post plenty of pics... has to be one of the best looking middys ever...

[Mosko111]

Will do mate!
Will have fishing rod holders on it for Chrissy time! Haha will be used for camping over the island as it's virgin trip..

[Mosko111]

Hey Killalux, you were right! This is the one you and Bluey did work on! So I'm definately getting it now because I know it's been done well!

[dogbreath_48]

It belonged to a member on here, I recall a build thread. Midi73 maybe?

[Mosko111]

I've been in contact with him via PM dogbreath, that's not his username though, maybe he changed it?

But he was a good help, same with Rohan the current owner,

[justinshere]

Is this the one in question...

Ebay item 110752358809

If so u have 3 days n 21hrs to bid!

If not, forget i ever posted this....

[Mosko111]

That's the one, but it's also for sale in other places, and that's where I found it and arranged to
buy it through.

[keencdk]

Have you checked to see what would be required to get it blue plated in QLD - I'd be doubtful it will ever comply if you want to road register it

[BJ73]

It belonged to a member on here, I recall a build thread. Midi73 maybe?

I think it was Evil73

[SCANAS]

How did you go Mosko ? and what are your plans for your twin 70's?

[Mosko111]

Not so good mate, I'm currently doing a shut down with C.B.H and employed as a casual.... Even though I'm still with UGL as a full time employee (I'm taking non paid leave to do this shutdown) they won't aprove the loan I needed to get the car.. even though I'm on a grand extra a week doing this shuty, and repayments are only $175 a week... Has pissed me off big time! But I've let the owner know if he hasn't sold it by the time I go back to UGL and provide a full weeks payslip to te bank, that he should sell it if he has another buyer come along, no use him being out of pocket because the banks are a bunch of Hom()s...

[SCANAS]

Thats sucks mate but how much free time do you have. I struggle to use one 4b and i'm single, don't know how you'd find the time to use both and to the GF thing too.
