OK, it's a deal Norm. Now I know for sure you have a beer fridge I'm definately coming out to see you Not that I didn't trust you, I just had to send Harko out first to check you out  It's such great news that your car is going, and the fact that someone you met through this forum helped you do it is even better. Roll on the next Nat's.............. Cheers, Craig. |

All the drinking was endured very precisely and effectively and the hard dusty work also done very willingly . Im going to see if I can get a still pic of you Norm off the vid cam because I cant explain the look you had when it kicked over after so long ,Would be something like "Quietly ecstatic" or "This is cooool" or "Shit yeah !!!!" Magic moment is right on the button Trev. We threw some oil in the gearbox today and changed the plugs and a new water pump as Norm said ,And I got to watch the 17 year old cheshire cat do wheelies in the dust and I had a ball. And the neighbours were there instantly with beer in hand smiling about their floorboards rattling - Cant beat country folk ,Hey Norm ! |

Good on you Norm for living & saving the dream, & to Harko for helping to keep the dream alive.
A great story & pics, all we need now are some sponsors so it can be signwritten, what about club sponsorship? & any members businesses.
It would be a great drawcard at any racing venue or motor show!

That is great stuff, good on both of you. What a Chrissie present for Norm. Harko, you're obviously one of Santa's little helpers, although pretty bloody tall for an elf!
Can't wait to see this thing get up and boogie. Harko, if you've got some video of it and want help posting it, just let me know and we can work something out - I've got all the gear for that.
cheers
