Yeah. This Coonara is well over 35 years old.
Handle broke of about 5 years ago. Had one made up and it's been in old mates glove box for years.
Hopefully get it soon.

Yep, think some I see could be that too mate. Keep seeing those here and there in the Central Vic region. It sucks that todays cars once they pass the warranty stage are not worth owning due to repair costs when parts and failures kick in. Gone are the days for many vehicles of simply going to the wreckers and driving on like I did with mine as a young bloke. 50 bucks here a 100 there.RM Outback said:Unfortunately it's becoming a trend as far as joy riding goes I see quite a few on my travels, some might be an insurance job too.
just starting said:Same Coonara as mine ,except i have the original handle !!! I have had to rebuild the 2 big 10mm plates about 3 or 4 times over the years and made about 5 baffles in that time ,too. I even had to weld up the cracks in the thick top plate where the flue goes through and reinforce it. I used to burn a lot of pine and burn it really hot ,but when the flue started to glow orange , i stopped doing that. Didn`t want to burn the house down !!! Been through 5 glass doors, too. Had 2 explode and 3 had wood fall and crack or shatter them. I am a bit hard on my heater , aren`t i ?
