Here's what I think of when I hear "bonnet".

Well, I guess it's better to be a yank than a hill billy. I'm in the Northern US and get made fun of for my yankee accent by the Southerners (southerner = hill billy) here.

Burton though... he's a cool cat.. at least I hope so, he's my husband. I keep seeing a bunch of Aussies on SQC so I figured I better check out what's on the other side of the pond. I picked up some hood vents from an Aussie for my 87 (sig) about a year ago. I love that they're metal instead of plastic.. was worth the extra few bucks to have them shipped. Maybe I'll find some other "rare" (but Aussie common) parts while I'm here. :wink:

And to hijack this thread further... Would any of you happen to know how my dog came to be? He's an "Australian Cattle Dog".


Oh, and YAY BEER! :beer

Well, once upon a time a mummy doggy and a daddy doggy fell in love........doggy style........and puppies were born. LOL
They are used here to round up sheep and cattle on farms. Hence the name.
