g'day hearsefans, well bluey won out on old mates haunted hearse, but fate struck soon after, i was on ebay looking for parts for spook when hearseboy looked over my shoulder and spotted an innocent looking white statesman as i was scrolling down the page. i passed it off as just a normal garden variety stato and kept going but he said go back, i think its a hearse so i went back and sure enough upon further investigation there she was a white hq statesman hearse with a wb front upgrade, just out of service and with signage still in place and in a wrecking yard. whhaaaat a bloody wreckers, emergency stations everyone, all hands on deck, first thing next morning a rescue posse was on its way to the offending wreckers and there she was, luckily untouched and waiting. we bolted to the office and within a minute she was ours, a successful mission and another one saved. more fate, just happened to be a tow truck leaving the yard and was headed our way, so within a few hours we arrived back home with number 6. bluey seemed to take this sudden invasion pretty well considering so i have them parked together till they get used to each other. a lot later that night we went out to spend some time in her to get a feel for her and enjoy the ambience and she is very warm and inviting so seems to be happy to be here. just goes to show how fate works, i was looking in a category that i dont often look under, hearseboy just happened to walk past at that moment, she was still there, tow truck leaving at that time. like i said there are some things your meant to have and some your not. till next time.
