Thanks guys.  Have you sent your entry forms in yet?

Entry Forms? HA!

i bet the quality of cars will far surpass mine. i'll bring it with me on the day, but i dont think its quite up to scratch for something of this calibre. (or...scratched too much!)

It's not autosalon. This is supposed to be an event for everybody. We will be giving away small prizes to heaps of people on the day just for coming.

The hope is that we will get a big range of skylines there for everyone to see the full range. It's a good excuse to give your car a big polish too, just to see how good you can get it looking.

Whilst it's a reasonable drive from f***ing freezing Can't-berra to Tumbi Umbi,providing my dash arrives back in time to fit it to the car,I'm soooo there! Entry form going in tomorrow...$10 + lanyards? BARGAIN!

Any SAU ACT'ers wanna PM me re:doing the drive up?

Well,I'm up for "company" for the cruise. Although,that's all it'll be-a cruise. My car gets enough unwanted attention as is;many of us may be really asking for it if we're hooking along. Then again,safety in numbers?!? And [(d a n n y )],where's Thornleigh on Sydney's maps? T'would be good to pick up even more on the run up to The Entrance...

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
