I guess this willdepend on the weather on the day. But knowing some of the members we could easily end up at one of the local pubs well into the night...

I might approach the local Ford dealer (I do have some contacts and they are opening a new show room) and try get a (or more) FG there for people to have a look at. With any luck they will support us for a bit of fun and we can make a day of it!

[HOWIES]

I read something about a pub.......i'm excited :-D

[bawag]

Locked in, but the missus has to work,
Ill try to organise a big esky and some drinks
Im sure itll fit in the back of the wagon, but as Grum said ill be looking for some numbers so i know how many softies to bring.

Cheers Ben

[Airmon]

I'll bring an esky and some soft drinks. Pub sounds good, but if anyone asks I'm not a P Plater :

My Name's Clay,
And I'll either be there in my Ice Mint BA with 'AIRMON' on the boot.
OR a White EF GLi Wagon depending on what happens the night before.

[HOWIES]

i can drive there......but i know if we end up hitting a pub, the wife is driving home. haha took me 10 years to get my bloody license so i sure as hell don't wanna lose it just yet.

Hey Grum, if you need me to bring anything, just let me know.

Ahh cool some of the 3V brigade are coming... these things are one of the best sleepers around IMO :evil3:
I almost bought an Ex-Chaser 3V XT before the XR.
Hey Grum do we have a figure on numbers yet?
If you need any help or anything you want us to bring, just PM me. :

[Grum]

NFI on numbers, just people on here who have posted AFAIK

I just bought myself $1500 worth of DSLR camera today so I should be able to take some good pics of peoples rides for them!

My wife works for Peter Warrens who own macarthur ford campbelltown (who my father in law also works for) & camden. She's going to have a chat with the dealer principals to see if she can arrange something for the day. It may only be an hour or 2, then again it could be for the whole day but she'll see what she can do about arranging an FG or 2.

[DBourne]

how about e-series imposters ;)

[Feathers]

This sounds good. I'll have to note it somewhere, but I'm up for a day out.

by the sounds of it everyone is welcome.grum,lock me in,Ill be there.

[HOWIES]

rightio guys, the wife has spoken to the dealer principal at macarthur ford in camden and has been given the all clear to borrow an FG for a couple of hours. It's still unclear on what model she'll be able to get and we probably won't know until the day before, but i'm trying to push for an XR of some sort. More eye candy to look at :-)

Greg, we'll have to sort out what time the car should be there and i'll run the wife up the road to pick it up and she'll drive it down. I was thinking that if proceedings start around 12, then maybe half hour later i'll take her to pick it up. Give ppl a bit more time to get there. I'm just trying to sort it so everyone gets a chance to have a look and a sit, take pics and stuff. Unfortunately, because it's a brand spanker, we're not allowed to test drive it because they have to keep the k's nice and low. But it'll still be good to have one there regardless.

I'll let everyone know what model will be appearing when we find out more info.

[GJB XR]

You bring your jaffa and I will bring a commodore. Probably my mates VE SS to show the boss owners what performance really is. :monkes:

[Airmon]

There's always room for some E30 love.

And sure Ben you can bring your mates Very Expensive Super Sh.t and just to make it even we'll pit it up against the 1.8 and watch it get its handed to it :P
Just remember its in Camden mate, its a bit of a walk to the nearest servo, and a longer walk back when you're carrying a 50L drum of Oil :thebirds: :

[HOWIES]

LMFAO!!!

Haven't heard from Greg on this thread for a bit. I hope i haven't pist him off by stealing his thunder when it came to asking to borrow an FG for a few hours. So, if you're reading this Greg.....sorry champ. Just thought it may have been easier for the missus to get hold of one seeing as though she works for em.

Oh great....now i feel terrible. Look at me, stealing peoples ideas. Next i'll have green interior lighting. Bulls&%t isn't it Clay. hahaha.

Nah i didn't mean to step on toes.....honest....

[Airmon]

You arn't stepping on anyones toes mate.
Gregs just started a new job so he's a bit busy, and I think everything is sorted anyway. We have an FG, and snags, all we need are definite numbers so we know how much food to bring.
And if greg can get another FG then its even better!!

Go the interior lighting it wouldnt be the first. My mate saw it and now his VS ute has green neons and a green dome light. :
