lol, I'm wondering why you would want me to give it a miss?
From what I hear, theres not going to be many Toranas there, especially A9X L34. I'll be there with or without the car, depending on weather.

anyone thats going, please keep an eye out for the 75 bathurst winner

im not sure if its a replica or the actual car,


we seen it driving thru kempsey on thursday on the road.
and a mate seen it in coffs harbour later that day

if you see it ,take a heap of pics, and find out details of the owner.

we are chasing the history of it, its been missing for a few years ,
imagine our shock seeing it on the road in kempsey, over 1800k's from its last known home

cheers
mick

I went up, didn't see the car you are talking about. No pics sorry, I was doing judging and never got to see everything I would have liked to. Johnny Goss was the only one there with a race car.

i was there, doing the judging with REDA9X and others (great to meet you Mick!), and helping Dr Terry with the sign in and paperwork with all the other officials. Great selection of cars, including 6 S4 EH's, there were lots of late entries on the Saturday, the weather was hot (the tar in the pit area melted!). I'm sure the organisers will address any issues from this event (first time its been run), and next years will better again. I'll post some pics soon.

Hi Mick, I heard you broke some locals heart
by pointing out his engine number was a grind down
and re-stamp....an SLR I think?

I guess this should go in to a new topic, but do we
have any tables or links to engine numbers/body numbers/
vin plates?

Would be a good ref. before buying....

Now I'm gettin' nervous about my SS!!!!
I want to make her 'factory'.

Cheers, Leakey

I was there on the Saturday.
Not a bad turnout. The LC/LJ guys turned up in numbers but the LH/LX boys stayed away ( with the exception of REDA9X, SLR5000 and a few others that I didn't know ).

I thought the Monaro display was awesome, the HSV cars looked great, the RT's were sexy but the early GT cars owned the show. They looked fantastic, more HO's than a Kings Cross night club.

Ahh, Bathurst sun, fair dinkum, somebody lit the fuse on that fireball beacuse it was REALLY HOT !!!! Ran into REDA9X at lunchtime Saturday and he looked absolutely stuffed. The bitumen was melting and the heat was stinging.

I took my girls for a blast around the track ( not a copper in sight ). Followed a pair of XY's who were keen to have a bit of fun.

All in all, a good day but I was dissapointed that there were no L34's and few A9X's. It didn't hold a candle to the 2005 Muscle Car Masters at ECR ( even with all the rain, it shit all over Bathurst ).
Hopefully 2007 will be better.

By the way, my camera packed it in, but I did manage to take 6 pictures. I dont know how to host but can email them to someone.

Cheers

DD
