If you were going to Austrailia.....

Post by HeadWound »

....what would you look for?

My Mother-in-law is going to be in Australia for a few weeks next month and asked me if I wanted anything.... Well, I had no idea what to ask her to look for, other than a MM1 or MM2 jacket. Is there anything else I should ask her to look for? She is headed out next Tuesday, then she will be out of communication for the duration of the trip.

A kangaroo or a Koala?

Naa, as far as Mad Max stuff goes, looking for it here will not be easy.
LTDHO = Supercharged Intercooled 5.7L 360rwkw, 6 speed

XB Coupe = Stock Fairmont GS with 351 and 4 speed.

But I really want a 600rwhp XB coupe!

A blue bonds t-shirt.
Problem is, they don't make them anymore so aside from looking at used clothing stores/second hand shops, she probably won't have much luck.
Also from the first movie are the Rossiter brand motorcycle boots. But those are also a hard to find vintage item.

The shirt from the second movie is a black bonds t-shirt, and those ARE still available new and easy to find in Oz. But his shirt in the second movie is so cut up and full of holes that you really don't need the bonds original.

I'm in Oz, and get most of my MM stuff from either the US or Japan. Go figure...

If she's got a big suitcase, you could ask her to bring back a XB :-)

A jar of Broken Hill dirt? A rock from The Pinnacles? A piece of scrap from The Compound?

Thanks guys! I kinda figured as much, but it isn't often that I know someone who will be there. If the movies weren't so old, I may could have better luck :)
