Post by: craiga on August 02, 2004, 04:52:59 AM Here's a picture of one our new, dedicated NSW members enjoying some respite at todays NSW All Holden Day. He was either asleep or catching flies. You can get really tired continually visiting the RTA to fill out rego transfer forms - HEY MICK!!!!
;D Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: craiga on August 02, 2004, 04:54:50 AM And here's another one. Cuts a fine figure our Mick. You should have seen the girls milling around, listening to his snoring. You big cuddly bear you!!
;D ;D Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: craiga on August 02, 2004, 04:58:52 AM Here's a picture of my two cars, the Poo Mobile, and my newish wagon at it's first car show since taking ownership. Bit rough round the edges but was the only FC wagon there today. Our club had a great turn out, about 20 or so cars, amonst the 35 or so FE/FC's attending.
Can anyone else confirm exact numbers? There seemed to be heaps of our models in attendence, some very nice cars as well. A particularly nice FE Standard, and a tough modified V8 FE really stood out from the non-club cars. Did anyone get any photos of these or any other non-club vehicles? cheers, Craig Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: -KIWI- on August 02, 2004, 05:37:06 AM HE CUTS JUST AS FINNER FIGURE AS ME !!!!!!!!!
Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: Kermit on August 02, 2004, 06:43:17 AM Craig,
You should not have published photo's of me without "copywrigt approval" as i am under exclusive contract to "Mr Stud" Model Agency, my manager will be in contact with you this week to obtain royalties. Rgds Mick Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: craiga on August 02, 2004, 07:50:01 AM Mick, now be honest - shouldn't that be "Mr Dud" model agency?
Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: customFC on August 02, 2004, 08:41:34 AM Hey Craig.
Naturally I got some pics, took over 200. The standard FE won a trophy at the 5th Nats for peoples choice. Not sure who the owners is/was, RET will check. I need to photoshop the pics for the web and load them up to my account, so will take about a week. In the mean time, here are a few I prepared earlier. Here's a pic of one of the modified V8 FE's there on the day......I'm guessing this is the 1 you referred to! Regards Alex Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: customFC on August 02, 2004, 08:44:40 AM Here's a pic of Ted's newly completed FC van....a beauty!
Regards Alex Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: customFC on August 02, 2004, 08:47:00 AM Just Mick's 'Kelly car'. ;D
Regards Alex Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: customFC on August 02, 2004, 08:50:16 AM A nice FE on the club stand.
Sorry, not sure of the owner, been gone from meetings too long. Someone please fill in the blanks. Regards Alex Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: customFC on August 02, 2004, 08:55:56 AM This ute was also on the club stand, but again not sure of the owners name. This was a very tidy example as you can see.
More pics to follow. If anyone wants pics of a particular car, ask and I will post it here if I have it. Craig....I got a pic of another FC wagon there on the day. Wasn't entered, parked on the oval....2 tone blue also. BTW...Col, did you find the place OK? Regards Alex Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: Martin on August 02, 2004, 11:08:14 AM Some great pics of some beyoodiful cars. :D
Keep 'em coming, fellas. Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: gp on August 02, 2004, 07:30:36 PM Hi guys,
It was good to have a chance to say G'day (albeit briefly) while at the AHD yesterday. I hadn't planned to attend, but Baydon & I jumped in the Commodore at the last minute (3.30am :o) and drove up for the day. I look forward to seeing you guys again soon. Cheers, Graham. :D Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: RET on August 02, 2004, 08:40:04 PM Just filling in Alex's blanks....
The Red FE belongs to new member Cameron K. This was its second club outing, the first being the HSRCA Racing day in June. The green ute belongs to Stewart D, aka forum user "mad_ozi_hunter". It was great to finally see this car in the daylight. Our after-dark viewings of it at Club meetings just do not do it justice at all! It is a beatiful "mild modified" vehicle, and it takes a good look over to really appreciate the detail. cheers RET Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: graham_fuller on August 02, 2004, 08:48:32 PM Trophy winners from our club were Richard Thomas,Craig Alderson (FC sedan),Wayne Skuse,and myself great result.Well done guys and 21 cars on the day.Thanks again to Ted Lowe for the banner stands I will post a photo tonight if no one else beats me to it.
Cheers, Graham Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: Hewart on August 04, 2004, 07:05:54 AM G'day guys...
I thought it was a good day, though not long enough... I had to duck off early so by the time you say g'day to a few guys, there wasn't enough time to see all the cars.... I only managed to see a few, but was surprised there wasn't more wagons.... I only saw Craig's FC and the red & white FE wagon from Illawarra.... I was surprised there was 3 panel vans, that's more than the wagons...!! I know it was the panel van's day though, so that explains that I guess... ;D I liked this one... was in the swap meet area... windows only on one side, which I thought was pretty cool... 8) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v310/ssehcc/ahd2004/100_2385.jpg) Can't wait to see of those pics Alex... Cheers Les.... PS: And I thought that ute in the club area was awesome...!! Title: Re: AHD ???

Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: customFC on August 04, 2004, 09:20:08 AM Hey Col
Sorry you missed the day. Hey Les That FE van belongs to Frank Guise, all the way from Parkes. The van used to be grey, but he decided to add some "colour" a few years ago. Frank also owned a restored 48 until recently. He told me that someone followed him home one day and asked to buy it. The FE is his only car, and he uses it for everything on the farm on which he lives. He takes it into town with trailer and 1,100ltr water container, fills the container with 1000ltrs of water and tows it home. That's a Ton of water. I bought my FC van from Frank years ago. Regards Alex Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: Hewart on August 05, 2004, 01:03:04 AM Hey Alex...
Thanks for the info... it's always good to hear about those good 'ol Holdens being used every day for hard yakka and coming through no worries at all.... only 1 tonne of water...!? That colour looked original, I wouldn't have picked it otherwise.... looks good. And not wanting to start "The Great Grey Debate", I also thought Ted's grey van was awesome!! Also, didn't know you had a van..!! Sounds interesting! Still got it...? Cheers Les.... Title: Re: AHD ??? Post by: customFC on August 05, 2004, 11:06:48 AM Les.
No van anymore. See Harko's thread in real cars for more details and pics. Regards Alex |
