Hi

Another soggy one. Thanks to everyone that turned up.

Saturday we ran out to Bellingen, the markets were great, bought some cheap bananas and had a great curry for lunch.

We had a small show n shine on the Sunday, the proceeds went to Normans Bug Of cancer drive as well as the money taken from the raffle.

So bummed I couldnt make it, hope you all didn't get too drowned.

Great pics, had to do a double take on David's bug, so used to seeing it with your plates on it.

ian.mezz - August 23rd, 2011 at 08:39 PM

We only had a few rain showers.
It was another top weekend away.:blush:

Hi

Ian, why don't you post your photos? edit he is

Joel, I nearly ended up taking the Prado or Davids Skyline, did a clutch, cam change (Berg 309), put the compression back up and only got it finished Thursday afternoon, left home with only 20 ks on the motor.

The SC plates are in storage hopefully for not much longer and are black & sliver now.

The BWD plate is what the RTA had in stock, Rose reckons it means Big Willy David.

Hi Damo

No worries, Ray the local does all the hard yakka, I love coming north and driving a bug on the open road, a bit of power makes it more fun.

I love the GB309. The motor is a 90.5x74 with 40 Dells and stock valve heads, it pulls an L bug from 1000 in top, drives really nice, floor it and give it some revs and its like Vtec.
