I know I have pic's somewhere but can't find them. You can go to my pic's through the link by my name if you want. I looked and looked. They're there somewhere. I have pic's of both the early and late models. I found the early but the late ones are harder to find. :roll:

Here's some of my '81. No guarantees it's correct, but it does keep my hood open!

I had to chuckle, down under we term the hood as the roof and I was wondering why you would want a pic with the hood and then the engine compartment :D ?
just for notes we call (and I think the English as well) the hood=bonnet, trunk=boot, disc=rotors (these can be swapped frequently) gas=petrol as we have LPG which IS Gas, fanny pack=bum bag (Fanny means something else here :shock: ) and in italy the fanny pack/bum bag=marsupial (appropriate I thought)
got to love the differences the world offer.....
Cheers David

You can add fender = wing to the list. Threw me totally when I was based in Florida and trying to get across what I wanted in a parts store.

And don't forget ..... rooting

I once meet a girl in Phoenix AZ. who said she rooted for the Dallas Cowboys .... I just smile and said " 'really' the whole team".


She didn't get the joke.
