No-2 is taken home... (not yet)~

I run away from work for a day just to pick up No-2 from the workshop in Bidong. By the time i arrived at bidong with the carrier, they still haven put on the front suspension so i can drag it up the carrier. So i had to wait under the scorching sun *_*~
While they putting on the thing and the front steering, guess what they did without the dash-board+bracket to hold on the steering~
Typical old-school workshop would do, tying it up using wire~! lol~ then the loading process start~
half way up the carrier, a nother unexpected even happen-ed. The cheap-lak muffler was grinding on the tarmac.... and a peek under the car guess what we found out~! NO SPRING! darn the so call brother of the previous owner had taken the spring~! 
So a lot of man power had to used to lift the rear to clear off the ground/muffler~ you can see a clear white line dragging on the ground~ ^.^ and after some really tense struggling, No-2 was on the carrier, yet the driver stated another concern... No hand-brake... he said the car would swing left and right without the hand brake. So as the result, he can't drive fast on the return trip.
And on the way back, we were going like 70km/h all the way till NT. and the funny part is the rear boot pop up when the carrier overtaken by a trailer~ lol~ the win pressure actually push the boot up even though it was without the rear glass on~ No-2 will be on going a full paint job at Ah Heng's place and prep for installing all the basic parts for my beginner drifting lesson in Batu Kawan.
