I'd be happy with that too Yeti, it was like I was sitting it the passenger seat, except I wanted to put my arm out the window.

Thanks mate, it's just one of these http://www.bigw.com.au/electronics/c...rts-action-cam

It's not as tech as a go pro as in it has a back screen instead of a smart phone app for control, and it's only 720p resolution (same as the original GoPro) but for $48.00 I couldn't pass it up

Thought that landscape in the video looked familiar, it's the Deagon deviation/Gateway merge heading southbound onto Board street (Sandgate road) - just behind my place.

Not a bad camera for the coin by the looks of it - I'll check one out too. Thanks for that.

Cheers!

Sorry Mate as XBROO said I don't know the area at all, I simply searched YouTube for a clip to see how well they worked after I saw them advertised in the BigW Cataloge.

I hope to go on a cruize tomorrow night (about the same time as the last clip was taken) with a few mates I want to play around a little so I'll post that up once its done

Awesome Yeti I like how old mate in the Holden wagon jumped out and took a photo at the drive-in. Yep I got a camera haven't really used it as we went away for the weekend with the kids. My missus filmed me snoring and took a couple stills with it, but bloody bargain.

Well last Saturday on a cruise down do Sydney in the corty for a car show on the Sunday,
I pulled into Katoomba for a break.

As I was cruising up the main drag looking for a place to eat I noticed the road was closed so I parked the car & walked up & noticed a heap of old chrome bumper cars lining up & asked the guys from the RFS blocking the road about the car show & they said we saw you pull up come & park the car in here, I though why not I have a bit of time to kill & parked it & had a look around.

It was a fantastic show, the Lady Luck festival. I will have to keep an eye out for this one next year it was like walking into a scene from the movie American graffiti.

You might even recognise some of these cars Yeti.

Lady Luck is a great event, I didn't make it this year unfortunatly

but one of the cars there

Is un-stoppable
This Black Poncho went to Phillip Island a week before for the Kustom Nats then backed up for Lady Luck and my next post will show what it did over the long weekend all with little more than Checking the oil and water in-between

Well, we did it again,

The Pariahs had our annual Australia day weekend away at Bendalong on the NSW South Coast

Hewey (A good mate of mine) chose the cruize route down and to say it was a Cracker is an understatement



Along the way in typical Yeti style we had a little hick up and as we were pulling in to Albion Park I realized I had



But it was nothing that we couldn't handle



But a quick trip to the good people at Dapto Brake & Clutch had us on back to bleeding the brakes in the carpark
http://www.daptoclutchandbrake.com.au/

Someone out there may be able to explain this photo to me, but some of the guys said this photo reminded them of another event that is on over the Australia Day Weekend


I must be simple, but I don't get it

Anyhow, once we got to Bendalong, Hewey presented us all with these momento's of the weekend



On Sunday we did a cruize to Sussex Inlet and took in the Show n Shine





Not sure if Damo had a problem with his car or wanted to show me his undies


I will throw some FauxPro videos once I put them together

Its been a while so I thought I would revive the thread.

Here are some from a cruise I organised a couple of weeks ago for the Small Ford Car Club. We went up the putty to the Hunter Valley, then down the Bylong Valley Way to Kandos & back to Sydney via Bathurst & the Bells Line Rd.

Just came across this thread ... some great pics and nice cars.
Did a quick check of my files and found this one of me cruising at Lakeside a few years back in my then new FG F6. Coming under the bridge and approaching Hungry Corner braking area she cruising around 160 kph. LOL

Loving the last picture.
New and old, absolutely perfect.

I quite often drive Bylong Valley Way. It's a great bit of road, I just wish I wish I didn't have to drive it in a diesel Prado.
Small Ford would be awesome on it.

Well we have just gotten back from our annual Pariahs Australia Day Weekend away (2014 is further back in this thread)

2015 for something different we decided to head up to Wollombi in the NSW Hunter Valley and hire out a “Barn Stay”


I was with my wife and kids in Becs 38 Ford
Gav was in his 46 Chev with Mick riding shotgun
Frank was with his wife in his beautiful 46 coupe
And Hewey & Liana were in Franks Jeep Gladiator towing the Pariahs eski (I’ll post the build on that later)


I’ve been really lazy here and taken this from http://kustomkultureaustralia.com/20...-day-run-2015/

What better way to celebrate the Australia Day long weekend, then getting away with a bunch of mates and cars and taking it easy? That’s exactly what we did this weekend with the Pariahs Car Club.
Now in its third year, we go to a different destination each time. The emphasis is on spending quality time with each other and our families. This year was also the shake down run for our barbeque/esky trailer which we’ve thrown together from spare parts and the cost of a slab of beer.
We met up in Sydney’s West. Most of us had spent the nights of the week, making final preparations for the run, and it was great to catch up and talk some **** before we headed off.

First stop was the pub at Wisemans Ferry for lunch, then onto the Ferry itself.



First stop was the pub at Wisemans Ferry for lunch, then onto the Ferry itself.




Our ride for the weekend was this 1970 Jeep, which was generously loaned to us by one of our mates. It drove great and made easy work of towing the trailer, even with it full of ice, beer and meat.


A quick breather on the side of the road. It was damn hot and it was great to get out of the cars after hours of driving in the hot weather


Almost at our destination, we stopped in at the Wolombi Pub for a quick drink. The locals had a good look at the cars.




Here’s the barbeque/esky trailer (I mentioned Hewey & Liana towing earlier) in action. The main components were a trailer we got off gumtree for a song, an old fridge that was lying in a club member’s garage, and a barbeque we managed to scrounge up. The fridge section has been converted to an esky, and the lower freezer section has been converted into the barbeque. It works a treat and gets more than its share of attention. And check out that slab of pork belly that’s cooking, so damn good.




Yeti interjected: What Hewey failed to mention was Day 2 where those that were awake climbed in the back of the Gladiator for a cross country safari to find the water hole for a swim (this safari commenced at 12pm so join the dots   )




Back to Heweys words: One of the days we cruised over to Norah Head for a swim. The beach was packed, but the water was great after spending a couple of hours getting there sweating our asses off on the vinyl seats.



No, this isn’t us, but when I saw the guys heading out with the longboards it was too neat a moment not to capture.


Before too soon it was time to head back to home and reality.

Yeti interjected: But before we set off the early risers headed to the Wollombi Australia day markets, (this is basically a medium sized swap meet where the emphasis was on the brick a brace that most swaps try to keep out, but Cords managed to find some treasures by way of some 46 Chev interior

Back to Heweys words: The weather was cooler, which was awesome, but it was also wet which made the twisty country roads tricky.


(Theres lots more on Heweys Blog)

So what is “the Pariahs” it’s nothing more than a group of miss-fits who like turning $$$ ins to sparks, noise, smoke & urine, but I think one of the other guys summed it up best when he said

So what makes someone a Pariah’s member?
Buggered if I know BUT we don't want to get too **** on what makes a proper car/club member, otherwise we turn into self righteous ****** we want to avoid.[/quote]
