    very carefully from memory...
    i picked the cabin up from brookvale on a weekday and went back to the central coast where these pics were taken and then from there to toronto in newcastle..[this is over 200 k trip]...you would think that a cab hangin out of the back of a pink ute would have attracted attention from the cops but they didnt seem to care,i did see a couple and they saw me..too hard basket i spose...
