Far out Matt, so glad to hear you didn't get up to high speed before the wheel came off, sheeeeeesh!!!! That's a very low act if someone did try to steal the wheels/loosen them off. Just glad it wasn't worse.

Im just going to paitch up the flare like you patched up yours after easternats....

Then maybe over summer NEW SPRAY JOB!!!

Looks like a sweet ride MRSLR, would be honoured to have you along on the cruise, more the merrier. At the moment the date is July 2 with July 9 as backup date. As for the rest, a few places have been suggested but a final map and schedule hasn't been put together yet...which is seems Brett has volunteered to do

Sorry to hear that Matt. On the plus side you still have Q which looks nice so you always have options. Will you be taking both, your girlfriend driving the HQ of course, cause I haven't seen it yet and would love to.
BTW I should be there, I'm always up for something to do with Toranas or cars in general.

Yeah i could take the HQ as well, but she will want to be in the torana with me! Maybe i could get a mate to drive it, still have to sought out my issue with the rear wheels, im still running bretts mags on the back, the 245's dont fit, even after i fixed the rear guards, i got a set of 235's to try out still.... Hopefully they will fit, then maybe the HQ can come as well....One of my mates would happily drive that!

Yeah im with Knoath, lets set up a route, next time im on the computer ill suggest a tavel route, and say 5 or so photo spots....

Cheers

ok guys so youve settled on a date being the Sunday 2nd of July. So sugestions for where we meet?

We always met up at club kilsyth, so we could meet up there, as there is some facorties near by we could head off to first for a group shot.

We could meet up at the Stamford in Rowville area? Its another big spaced area which we could even take a snap or two at. There are a couple servos either side of the road for anyone needing to fill up before the shoot.

Now i was gonna ask, matty have you been around anywhere to see what things look like? cos its one thing to oragnise what time we meet up, but its another thing for the locations we want. Alot of these places the sun is best at certain times of the day. If you go at the wrong part of the day you will either have your car in full shade, or half half which is worst.

what time do people want to meet at? early start or still time for a semi sleep in?

And did we decide if people want to go to the pub or not? was everyone happy with going to Daisy's in ringwood again? it seemed to work the last time we went on a cruise.

I will chat to the boy tonight but maybe if we are free this weekend i might offer to organise a run sheet and go for a drive and work out where we can go and what times etc. Anyone got any dramas with us taking the reins let me know. Just thought id offer my services.

I say, "Go for it Deb!"
A run sheet's a good idea, there's always someone getting caught at lights or something!
As for time of day, I guess it depends on what the weather's gunna be like, if it's overcast I 'spose it really wont matter what time we go... the light will be even.... but if it's to be sunny, morning or arvo for the pix, so maybe lunch to give us a break while the sun is highest?
Just my 2 cents....

Really looking forward to meeting up with peeps, and meeting some I haven't yet.
Can't wait.

Yeah, go for it Deb. Someone needs to take the reigns if this thing is going to get off the ground, and your experience will be invaluable in organising a route and map :spoton:

Peace,
