Submitted by Trueblue3 on Thu, 2012-05-24 15:50
Hey everyone.
Just thorowing it out there, and I applogise for the very late notice. But has anyone got 2 oversize signs I can borrow?
I placed an order weeks ago to a sign writter, they stuffed up the order today big time, wrong signs completly...bit of a let down...
I tow an oversize seafox, and I am leaving on a trip to Carnarvon saturday morning.
Has anyone got 2 I could borrow for 13 days? I would sort you out with beer, cash, fish even!
Whats the chances of risking it and being done?

Try Trucking Shops
Would expect you could pick these up at any truck sellers or accessories store? Try Truckline, AV Trucks, Skippers Trucks etc. Maybe even the BP Truckstop in Kewdale. They should have them in metal or the canvas style.
Good luck.

Must be the week for it.. I
Must be the week for it.. I just lent mine out on Monday!! Ive got some Road Train signs if theyll help ;)...sorry
Personally I wouldnt risk it.. The heavies love hanging out at places like Bullsbrook on Saturdays for a reason
Id go with Browndogs idea and go into kewdale and buy some newies, plenty of places... check the BP last... theyre exorbitant!!! Have a safe trip

oversize
Im in Geraldton and have some canvas ones but Im off to the islands tomorrow. Could leave them outside for collection, Im about 2 k's from 440 roadhouse.
Cheapest place to get canvas ones is Advanced, online I think $60 each for oversize.
Be careful that your signwriter uses correct material as the they are supposed to have a notation on the corner for reflectivity/brand/type I think.
Id only risk it if you have to, penalty is $400 each for, no signs, no flags, no headlights, no handbook in the cab and more for towing after dark. Personally though Im not sure if the "mermaids"** target small stuff like this, however they might be bored/pissed off etc!
HINT take the signs off when travelling after sundown!
**mermaids =c+nts with scales
Give a man a mask, and he'll show you his true face...
The older you get the more you realize that no one has a f++king clue what they're doing.
Everyone's just winging it.
