Little bit of everything here.....

 Remember I mentioned the 2000 books I purchased on gumtree...slowly getting thru them, and coming across jems like this!
 Lots of good stuff for me to scan n print eventually
 Ever wonder just how many flayheads were built...and hopped up as well!
 I have lots of excess books to part with as well....all double ups when you acquire so many...
 This e mail came thru about one of Fords boats being made into a home...
 credit to the photographer/publisher for putting it on the net...cool pics!
 Every detail in the ship remains the same as when it was afloat...



 Cool!!
 Getting a tad excited...not long to go now, just 6 weeks away....I still have a spare room booked in LA to get rid of...might put the word around and see who need it.
 Love to know how many aussies will be there...it'll be like sideshow alley at the Ekka!
 Tim sent thru pics of my old roadster....new split cover instesd of a top!


 Looks great!
 Mid week run next Thursday 24th to Tarampa Pub..

 Researching pics for Rods Inc. 50th celebrations.....came across some gems...my old road duster on the way to Narranderra Easter 75
 A roadster I owned briefly and let it go...(idot)...was built up by Gary Ward..had a 332 fairlane engine back in 67/68 era..I think I paid $950 for it as is...shoulda kept it...
 Another that was ahead of its time..Tommy Fultons T bucket went against the Aussie way of building, and had the California look, complete with slicks, spokes, and Hilborn injected flathead...this would be cool in any era!
 my front yard..about 1968/69/70, with one of Peter Crains T bucket projects...I used to make all the frame bits for these...love the Cusso hood used as the advertising board!
These great pics were from a  recent wedding in Toowoomba .....
 Got the bridal party outa the way so we could capture the cars....
Shane, Malcolm and myself have done a few of these together now.
