Title: I'm back from the "Dark Side"
Post by: Mick Wilson on July 06, 2004, 01:29:12 AM
For those interested i have just purchased Julie Rutherford's FC, so this makes the third FC inside 1 year, and guess what Craig it's not Blue and White this time, its two tone green. It's currently in the hands of TNT who are bringing it up from Melbourne, this is the first time I have purchased a car without actually seeing / touching it, so at the moment my feelings are mixed half anxiuos to get the car the other half nervous !

Well done Mick , you finally DID come to your senses ;)

Julie's car certainly did look good in the photos, let me know when it arrives in Sydney because I'd like to come over and have a look.

Cheers,

Craig.

Hey Mick....
If you're worried about your car, nothing will brighten you up than a visit from the boys....!! 8)

Not that I was really concerned about my "new" FC, I guess it's just the different reactions you get from "non-Holden" people when I show it to 'em makes you start to wonder if it's going to be much harder than you originally thought..... BUT I had a visit last month (26th) from CraigA, John Raff and the internationally famous (Chris) Kiwi.... and when they left I was very happy with what they had said... The guys were full of encouragement and helpful tips of how to go about different things on the project... A much better reception for the new wagon compared to "other" visitors...

Thats the bit I love about this place.... it's full of emcouragement... and that breeds enthousiasm...

I also wouldn't mind popping over for a look when your new FC arrives in Sydney.... I live just down the road at Heathcote so short notice is no problem... :P

Cheers
Les...

Les,
No prob,
I will let you know. When you said about the guy's coming over do they also do the work for you and supply the parts!
Looks like "we might have a convoy" I better get some beer and snacks organised.

Well by the looks of it i better increase the beer order, as half bottle and one piece of cheese may not be enough ( thats between all of you ) I advise all of you to be careful, i still have the EK at home and I would not like to see anyone shift to the dark side like what happened to me
