Well well well..... Where do I start.

My last real update was 2016, pretty slack really. The study has been killing me but have run off with other quite expensive hobbies. One of which is my WIFE

Seriously though it's too freaking cold in Victoria for me to do anything except beg to get a posting out of here. Having said that Victoria is beautiful and my lovely  wife has forced me into buying a caravan ( no money for FC  )

My new hobbies -
Kiteboarding is one hobby I have started, each kite is over a grand and I have three. Don't start me on boards wetsuits etc. Then theres travel and wind etc etc.
Drones- 2 grand per done and I went and got my drone Remote Pilot Licence too. Training for that alone is usually 3 grand, FLIR camera - 2 grand MONEY MONEY MONEY.

What I have also is a pain in the arse 16 year old daughter that has become very demanding for some unfortunate reasons.

I have started working on the car again after some inspiration from a couple of locals here and will start taking some photos.


I am doing an Aviation Safety course in Canberra that just so happens to finish the day before good Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!
So finally I am able to go to the FE FC Nationals and I am totally pumped about

I'll give you $1K for your "project", and take a chance, that should see some spending money for your other hobbies

My last update was 2016 as well, maybe I'll shoot down the shed today and take some pics.....bloody life getting in the way of things!!!

[NES304]

Well...... Been a while. The engine blew a rear main seal after being dry or whatever. To replace the seal is an engine out job so I Bought another engine to jam in.
That engine had a bloody inlet manifold leak  and water all through it. I can't bloody win.

So I repaired them both. I have another FC sedan as my next project and so the black engine will be for that car.

[NES304]

Shitty paint I know, it'll get re done. I want VF black leather seats in the other car.



And the video. The dam IAC is annoying.

G'day Marc,

Good to see you found your way back to the shed again...…. 

Historic racing at Sandown November 10 and 11 - make some time and come up on the Saturday as I will need a co-pilot on the track when the racing is done.

Cheers, Graeme
