Sorry guys looks like I have been in a coma with work demands etc. How far is it from the Southern Highlands?? From memory it is way up the coast of NSW.

Matt Ryan - August 1st, 2006 at 09:01 AM

I have a strange mixture of excitement & panic/dread, will I get all the work completed on time, will it all go ok or will there be problems requiring more work? Shit what am I wasting my time gibbering on here I should be out under my beetle.

Matt.


bajachris88 - August 1st, 2006 at 10:26 AM

I know i'm gonna get there, but damned if i know what i'm going to do there....

Think the beach would be warm? :lol:


hellbugged - August 1st, 2006 at 01:20 PM

the beaches here suck Chris...way too crowded for strolling:P


pete wood - August 1st, 2006 at 02:03 PM

I have to...
paint the floor,
clean up my wiring,
wash and detail the whole car,
swap my wheels and tyres over,

and I'm just quietly a little nervous about a 6 hour drive. :crazy:

Can't wait to get there though. should be a great weekend. :bounce

ColumBUS - August 1st, 2006 at 04:00 PM

just remember that just because the sign says 110, doesnt mean you have to go that fast!

we'll be sitting on a steady 90kms and stopping every couple of hours for checks and maintenance so we're all set to go.

just need to get the interior done!
bought window winders, fuel lines and spare fuel filter for the trip... num nums!


VDUBXTC - August 1st, 2006 at 05:03 PM

for those making the long haul.
stop at your closest truck stop and tie a rope to your car and a truck
when it leaves, free travel expeses and less stress on your engines :P


rose - August 2nd, 2006 at 06:04 PM

butidontunderstand - August 2nd, 2006 at 08:51 PM

yay!! just arrived up in coffs, valla is so soon!! i got all excited when i drove past the "valla beach" sign :bounce :bounce :bounce


crewcabconnection - August 2nd, 2006 at 09:10 PM

yay, bus is back from der shop ... engine had oil pressure seal issues, so engine back in, now holds the oil as it should ... new ignition switch and relay to deal with the voltage leakage off the non-aux switch, so now the battery doesnt die overnight (we hope).

Hoping to get an electrician out to wire up a 15A inlet and breaker tommorrow - Unless someone can tell me where the friggin earth should go...

Dead nervous about the drive up too....so far I've been to Narooma and back....so definately not convinced all the gremlins have been killed...its just not got the ks on it to give me confidence...time will tell.


Special Air Service - August 2nd, 2006 at 09:46 PM

Was getting really excited, got the oil changed, tappets done, timing done, put a kit through the carby, cleaned the interior & was going to was & polish the old girl thursday arvo & friday morning then my 2 & 1/2 year old daughter has been put into hospital with pneumonia which is a bit of a worry. Still hoping to at least race up for a look on the Sunday but my little girl takes first priority. If we dont make it I hope the rest of you have a great weekend.

Cheers
Brendan

PS. anyone able to pick up a pair of front seats that I had arranged to pick up at Valla on the Sunday & drop them back to Taree on there way back down south?
