We're attemping to put the side windows in today.The seats are at the trimmers aka Brad & then it will be dependent on the canvas for the poptop.If she is ready i think it will be right down to the line.When i say ready she will be regeod but only have front seats in her.....the rest of the interior will have to wait.🤪

Ill be there in the KG. It will be its first club outing. Only need to fit new tie rod ends, fix up the dash, re-glue the carpet, and clean it from top to bottom, polish everything. Only about 3 weekends worth of work. Getting tired thinking about really. Looking forward to a great day👍

The average trip From Sydney to Melbourne is 9 hours, in a Dub it's probably longer. Add the couple of hours it takes to get from Newcastle to Sydney.... and another couple to get from Melbourne to where DOVW is held.... :P

woohoo! pressure's on. my bay will miss the day again (3rd year running!) as it will probably have just arrived home from Berry Springs NT by then, and i will have no where near enough time to rebuild the engine (head stuffed, and maybe more), relocate the radiator, fix the handbrake and tinker. instead, depending on the condition of my $400 t3 wagon when it arrives today i will be cruising in either a 72 wagon or 72 notch, depending on the work needed (both need minor paint/panel, wagon needs a bit more bodywork, interior work, seatbelts plus?... notch needs engine out of wagon... see which is easier tonight) so i got some long days ahead to get one of those 2 registered, rat look is DEFINITELY the go.
see yas there!
