Talking March 9 Melb mini meet pics
G'day all,

Just thought I'd put up a few pics from last night's mini meet. It's the first I've attended in a long while, but the bit about it being Galapogos' last in a year got my attention. :

My Falcon is still a little way from being on the road but I figured I should take the Eunos in the meantime and at least get to catch up with the gang. The pics are only from the first meet because it started getting too dark for my camera to work but the time we reached Sunny's work to annoy him. Others there included EF Classic, EF Machine, Stevo, Rmyers, Yagz, au-steve, EFFalcon, Thanatos, brockfordsrule and of course galapogos. Enjoy!

regarding pic#2: what size are the wheels? How much do they go for 2nd hand? Who makes them?
My EAII Fairmont has the factory option 15"x7" JJ Alloy with p205/65HR15, but I'm looking for a relatively-inexpensive-yet-good-lloking 5-spoke design the same size (15"x7").

At least he gets cheaper insurance than a commodore with a few companies...
