Hey Blue74l, do the pictures load quickly enough? I am not sure if it takes ages with so many picture links in the one post. This is the first time I have tried posting pictures like this.
I took about 180 pics which is going to take me a bit toooooo long to put them all up. I will look through the rest and pick out some more.
If anyone is interested in all the pics in there original size then let me know and I can setup a way for you to down load from my work. The zip file is 100 Mb.

I went, I saw, I had fun.
It was really good to meet a lot of the forum guys. No-one told me to my face that my jap conversion sucked because it's not a vw, instead I had the complete opposite. As soon as I parked it in the main street it was surrounded by people wanting to ask questions. I got heaps and heaps of positive comments. I even took Col (kruizinkombi) for a quick spin.

Yeah same here, Had a really good time. I left late sunday arvo. Nearly had a head on with a Camira just south of Ballina. I tell you my life flashed passed my eyes.
This drop kick in a Camira decided he was going to turn right in front of my path at 120kmh Then he realised he had turned the corner to early and decided to stay on my side of the road for another 20 meters and then turn. I braked he braked . I swerved he stopeed on the road. Put it this way I missed him byy a Bee's Penis.
Oh and to top it off there was a truck up my rectum aswell. Nice one Camira Driver, where did you get your licence.
Anyways nice to finally meet all you fine peoples. Kol all the best mate, thanks for the help with the Computer. And Im sorry to hear your loss. I will be definately be dropping in on you when Im next down your way.

Thankyou guys for sharing the pics. Being up here in Darwin you never get to see these events unless you make the haul down south.
Is anyone going on the 'ULTIMATE AUSSIE SUPERCRUISE' in September?

I too had a great time (4th Valla - each one has been great in its own way). I was lucky enough to be driving around Guy Harding's PMG splitty van for the weekend. Apart from a leaking rear main seal on the way home and a slipping clutch it didn't miss a beat. Nice not having to worry about polishing a car for the show 😀 Thanks for the loan Guy!
Didn't have a chance to catch up with too many forum members, tried to have a chat with Dave but I guess you were busy talking with others as the conversation lasted a whole 20 seconds 🙂
Look forward to getting there in my own car next time, who knows, may even have my corvair powered 64 double door panel there in two years (maybe)

Was great to be able to finally match some faces to names (Nobody ever looks how you expect!).
The cars were awesome! The Flat Four Club were parked/camped directly opposite us (Klub VW) so we got a good look at that Hot Pink Oval, very nice indeed!
See ya all there again in another 2 years! Wouldn't miss it!

Hi
The peach bug is owned by Mike @ Vintage, he drives the LMS drag car and his brother John owns the super low Blue ghia that has been off the scene in mothballs much to long, but not much longer Ive heard.
We have decided that we ran out of VW/party time so we are going to go up on the Thursday in 2 years time.
It was great to meet you all, did anyone take a group photo?

Our first time at Valla was fantastic 🙂
Nice to catch up with some forum people and met plently of other friendly Dubbers throughout the weekend. We just got back today as stopped off to see some relos on the way back. Haven't had a chance to resize photos yet (took over 200 I think at 1600 x 1200) but will pick out some goodies and post them in the next day or so hopefully.
Do you think I should do so in another thread in case this one is now taking too long for some people with slower connections to load up?
Benetton, as far as I know, Jeff, the owner of Cool56 is not a frequenter to this forum that I know of. I do have some more pics I think so will post them too.
Having a trouble free trip up and back mechanically was a relief. The Kombi went well and didn't cause us any grief.
The street line-up on the Saturday was amazing, so many nice rides in the one place. All the locals seemed to be out in force too appreciating the VWs. It was funny to see many enthusiests crawling over the restored, stock and modified VWs and our Kombi was packed with kids!! They all seemed to want to look at the Simpsons fridge and bright interior.
My kids had a great time and we are all looking forward to the next one 😀

Kol, Skewy & Me rolled into to Melbourne, all safe and sound, at about 6.00pm last night. Long haul home. Not bad time considering we didnt leave Valla until 4.00pm on Monday. Amazer was still having probs with the Turbo Bus, so we left Jay and Chris & Family in a little town about 20ks from Newcastle.
Kols alternator seized near Gosford so it was back to the battery swapping all the way back to Melb.
But it was all worth it, because I had the best time in Valla. So good to meet lot of the nice peeps here & look at some sweet VW's. The parade to Nambucca was excellent and the main street jam was something I won't ever forget.
Thanks to Boris and the boys for the campside repairs on Friday. And thanks to Brissie and Sydney gangs for the laughs and hangovers.
I'll be back in two years for sure. 🙂:thumb

Yep it was fun to match some names and faces and stuff, but the matching only lasted about seven minutes, before meeting a whole barrage of other new faces and names to obliterate my already skanky memory. I must have met billions of people.. but can only remember about 200 faces, without names. i remember 1302steve (who could forget a scary bloke like that 😀) and skewy (funny bastard) STILL I have to say it's time to start booking for next valla, so i can get a spot in the park. I stayed down the road at nambucca, which was a bummer as far as driving around all over the place goes... harder to get drunk 😀
Me Jay, Kruizin Kol, Grey 57, and a couple of pikers (hehehe) participated in a moonlight vigil as we warmed ourselves over amazer's cooked kombi motor on sunday night. sure the other camps had 'fires' and laughter, and booze, and dancing and strippers.... but we had ... a couple of possums and an apple.
ahh shit.
we had fun 😀
thanks to Kruizin Kol for the use of his pits and tools (anyone need anything like a blue series bosch rotary hammer.. *drool* he pretty much had it) I soldered my speakers back on after arriving late at the barbecue, and somehow missed the trophy stuff and the swap meet and all that. no real deal, because I had no money left anyway... had to rely on girlfriend to buy petch on return trip 😀
in a freaky coincidence three snot green vws lined up in the convoy two of which were twin 71 supers.. the one parked in the middle in town was mine (see photos previous 😀) unfortunately being stuck in the parking lot in main street was not conducive to getting to the track on time, as the racers were supposed to park up the front so we could leave early for the track. i was only an hour late. if you went to the race i was the guy sitting in the passenger seat for all the right hand turns and hanging out the window on all the left handers. no matter how hard i tried i couldn't seem to keep it in a straight line with my bodgy steering box and hard highway tyres... and crappy driving. Never heard so much screaming from my slides... damn it was funnnnn 😀 have a lot to learn about cornering, but i stayed on the track.
i was the only 'base' 1916 out there, and my lil bug held it's own. at the back of the track was a double hairpin. quite a sudden sight from the fastest part of the course with serious understeer.. woohoooooo 😀
i got a racetrack fine for 'impersonating leo the lion' at the dinner that night. wtf. didn't get fined for not doing a standing start first time out (still in 'ohcrapi'mlateshitshitcaughtintrafficdammhurryup' mode) but there was no official timing on the day. i was told by a couple of people i got 68 seconds fairly consistently. (track record being something like 50 seconds.. oop) felt like about ten seconds a lap. shame more bugs coudn't turn up to race. six 1916s were there, and a fasty, and a notch, and a golf, and.. and ... enough about racing.
Haa hahha to jenz for actually meeting me at the dinner (you said you'd find me... and you were right)
congrats to jay for freezing her "$%@#" ass off all night while we warmed ourselves by amazers engine party, and thanks again to kol's insane tool collection. like wes, noone said anything to my face about anything to do with anything (hey.. we have a forum for flaming 😀) and the locals loved the action, sitting out on their lawns and fences and kerbs waving and smiling at the convoy, and wandering curiously amongst the aberrations in main street. next valla i want to have money... and i want to go to the swap meet... and bid at the auction... but i'm not going to bid for the $400 jumper. 😀
Kol has some great pics and some little vids on his camera which i hope to see posted sometime:thumb

This is to say a big THANK YOU
to all I met, partied, drank with, at Valla.
I had the best time.
I never could of imagined I would have a
perfect weekend like that.
I met some great people from this forum,
& others along the way & friends I hadn't seen for a while.
Sorry I couldn't stay long at the BBQ as I had to do so much in one weekend.
Thank you all for the trouble you went to to come, the laughs & adventures we all had, To our Klub VW members who I laughed & partied with most of the time
a big thank you.
Nice to now know who I am chatting with
late at night in the chat room.
Thanks to all for a VW weekend.
Will be there next one....

This is my one-and-only convoy shot. I was kind of occupied making sure that Chris's Hellfastback didn't go careening into the oncoming traffic. :o

Unfortunately, it was difficult to catch up with the owners of most of these cars, so I'll just post the pics...

Steve's a pretty handy sorta guy, I believe this job was all put together in his shed, complete with water injection to keep the temperature down, and Commodore idler pulley (they are good for something!)

And that's all the pics I have of the cruise. Unfortunately I didn't make it to the Show'n'Shine, except when I was hunting for a Torque Wrench.
There were a LOT more cars to see, I started at the front and didn't make it through the first straight. There were a lot more cars around the corner! 😎
