Title: Back to Mount Gambier
Post by: weddo on August 11, 2008, 11:08:10 AM
After passing through Mount Gambier over 30 years ago we were fortunate to go back there to buy an FC two years ago and then return with the car to the Mount for the Nationals. We now have another chance to return in October for the South East Street Machines 30th Annual Show and Shine. The FC we purchased from Neil Morrison (now HER FC) was one of the original tee shirt cars from the first show and shine and we have been invited to bring the car back for the 30th show. At least we will both be travelling in the one car this time, we took both our cars to the Nationals, so we drove one each. So look out Mount Gambier, Judi and I are on our way back again.

regards
Weddo

We are in some great company for our return to Mount Gambier

"We have some good draw cars for the show, including Holden's Efijy(first time ever displayed outside of a capital city), Rex Webster's FJ (won Meguires Motorex in Sydney), Shane Dale's HX Panelvan (Australia's top panelvan), The Pink LJ V8 Torana that was top street machine last year, Steve Johnsons FC Wagon (top Street at Summernats) and Anthony Whiteheads Blown big block 33 Chrysler Coupe (top exhibition class at Summernats)"

Better polish HER FC a little more ;) it may even out shine Efijy ;D ;D ;D

Regards
Weddo

Will be good to see you here Bill, we have a lot of good cars entered already, unfortunately the ex Rex Webster car has developed some mechanical issues and can't make it, but there is a nice replica GT and a stunning HK Monaro  coming now. Brian Willis with his beautiful HG Monaro is also hoping to come if he can get time off of work.
Cheers
Neil

Hi Steve,

Sorry, I missed your reply for some reason, look forward to catching up with you again(and any one else from the Mount :D) I will give you a call when we are underway.

Judi and I are just about to leave Hobart (Thursday afternoon)for a drive to Devonport, catch the boat to Port Melbourne and leave Friday morning about 8am for a lovely drive to the Mount.

See you all at the show

regards
Weddo

Got off the boat in Melbourne this morning and drove to Mount Gambier, car went as sweet as.

Cleaned the car and set up at the car show.

Efijy arrived in the back of a car transporter and guess what....  it broke down... would not start. ??? :o

HER FC ..1.. Efijy .. nil.   ;D ;D ;D :D

Look forward to the show on Saturady and Sunday some great cars are here.

Weddo and Judi
