Bad News; had my ute stolen and burnt out :'(.
Good News; the only thing of value, my Monty forks, are recoverable

Some of you have seen me old multi coloured 20 yo Navara twin cab fourbie. Nothing too flash about her but she did the job. I called it my 'science experiment'; it had 600,000klms on her and I wanted to see how far it would last. Rego is a week away and I was coming up to 'decision' time again. I was just about to run her down to the garage for the inspection to see how many faults they could pick and what the minimum repairs I was up for.
One of the things I liked about the Beast was it was so nondescript I felt comfortable about leaving it in isolated spots and go Bush walking with me dog. Or so I thought. Came back today and the Beast was gone. They only drove it about 2 kay and went down a side street and burnt it - in front of someone place!!! They rang the firies. The firies were near by doing an exercise and responded exceptionally quickly.
The bottom line is that the front of the cab was burnt out but the rear cab was burnt but not so intensely. The Monty forks survived
