I assume Big T has us pencilled in for the BBQ .... right T ?

For sure man. I am getting the numbers together for the QTCC and will add you to the list.

Bomber - I will send the contact number for the motel. BTW are you and cruisa joining us for the run down? We are meeting at Shell Mudgeeraba at 5:00am for a 5:30am depart on the Friday (17 Sept). If there are any other QLD'ers who want to join us you are more than welcome to.

hey bomber when you get the name of the motel ask for liz she is the one organising it ok cheers billywest

Hi All

here is the link to this years Toranafest Ad that will be shown next week via Southern Cross Ten and one HD.

I apologise that it's not in HD, but we are trying to get a HD copy to upload.

See if you can spot some cars (and owners) in the clip!!

It's a carton for appearing in something like this isn't it?

cheers
Mick

Hi All

Here is the link to the HD Version of the Ad..

cheers

does anyone have a car that they want to take but cant get it to newy if you can source a roadworthy registered insured trailer with spare wheels and your car is insured either layed up cover or full i can tow your car up to tfest and bring you back but you must live en route from mittagong to newcastle .no 3 day trips to retrieve cars.pm me if you need more details.cost will be around $100 towards fuel.

so... the missus comes up to me and says ,"when is this Toranafest thing on ??" ,"18th-19th of september" i replied. "do you know what day that is ?" she says. "err no" thinking we must have made plans to do something else that weekend .
"ITS OUR ANNIVERSARY " she tells me .
However being the awesome woman that she is , and she knows how desparate i am to go (even though my Torry is unable to attend )
So on the weekend of the 18th -19th of our anniversary she is coming to Torana heaven with me while i try to get some inspiration. So i look forward to meeting some of you and seeing nothin but wall to wall Toranas. Cheers, Rob.

Andrew - The way I read it is that Rob will tow if you can source a trailer. As you are asking to borrow a trailer I dont see how Robs offer is of any benefit as I assume you have a car that can tow just as Rob does.

Hi all, just letting all know we have just hit 247 pre entered cars. That equals the record amount of last year.
It looks like we will set a another new mark this year.
If you have not yet entered please let me know ASAP. [email protected]

Just another reminder that Goody bags cut off at 250. Entry trophies will still be given out to those after 250 and the entry fee drops to $30.

Thanks to all that have Pre entered this makes it so much easier for all.

Looking forward to the weekend.

Regards
Pete.

Hi

I shall be turning up less my V8 Torana as my 2 friends, my wife and baby wont all fit. My friend who is taking us down owns a gutted 6cly LC sedan and is after ideas on fitting a V8 motor and what colour to paint it.
I own a V8 efi Lx torana that badly neads a paint job and am keen to see some other forum members cars in the flesh.

Hi Neil, i've entered my EFI Orchid LH that was built with some inspiration & ideas from your LX. I'm hoping it'll be there but as the rag joint coupling is cactus it all depends on my being able to replace it before next saturday if i attend or not. Keep your eye out for my car anyhow, i don't imagine there will be all that many Orchid LHs there. Cheers Matt

Anybody got a time machine for sale? Time is coming close and I'd dearly like to have the new radiator in, which is reliant on the new bracket for the thermal fans. It's going to be an interesting week. Thankfully a course on next week, so I can sleep during the day, play at night.

See you all soon!
