+1....how can I hold it over her head if I don't have pics!!!!

[Bart]

Yes, if anyone in Melbourne wants to see this car. I dare say it will probably be at the Hot Rod Show (at the exhibition centre) at the end of the month. It's a great car in the flesh and a lot quicker than you'd expect

Cheers

Love the rear end/dish on the rear wheels, anyone got shots of the back/side?

[Bart]

Indeed they do, another reason why I'm looking forward to Powercruise.

Back on the cars, check out this beautiful LJ. Has run 10.38 over the quarter (no gas!!) and made it into the Elite Hall, even though the owner, Frank, only originally intended entering the Street class. Not sure if you're on here Frank, but top stuff all the same!

Cheers

shame cause ive been to every event. even befor it was summernats & was known as street machine magazine nationals.
in early years it was every 2nd year with hot rod nats alternating years.
may show my age but i started young.

I went in those days too. If I remember correctly it wasn't the Street Machine Magazine Nationals, it was simply the Street Machine Nationals & I think the first one was in Griffith & promoted by the 56,56,56 Chev Club (1975 or 1976, before Street Machine Magazine began). I also went to the ones held at Albury, Nerrandera & Mildura. As you say it was held every 2 years alternating with the Hot Rod Nationals.
