So, this is on Saturday morning... first one ever was last month and had a pretty good turnout.

Sounds good - I'm in.

Bugger, I don't get my starter back until Monday!

@craig_m67 - Nothing a push start can't fix.

I guess I could always bring sooty and look at all the classics, it'd be nice to put some faces to names after all

Borrow a starter from Derek?

It's bolting it all back together again that I really only want to do once as there is very little room under the carbs etc on a 1600. Makes the 2000 look spacious by comparison

There's always next month Craig. I'd love to see that Junior of yours. Or will the NSW rego run out by then?

LaStregaNera · September 02, 2014, 11:29:41 AM

On again this weekend!

Next one is 4th October.
I was the solitary Alfa (again) - there was about 6 of the Fiat guys rocked up though...

you know I'm trying!

Sorry, it was Father's Day, I went up to Hervey Bay (in an Alfa, av. 3.9L/100Ks)
October sounds good
Any pics?

I'm not really a camera guy, but there's a gallery of pics a mate took here - he's a porsche tragic, so forgive the content!

I'm not going to be at the next one - wedding anniversary....

Craig, what model Alfa did you drive on that Hervey Bay trip? That's seriously good economy.

156 1.9JTD Sportwagon.

It's not typical economy, we were effectively hypermiling due to roadwork speed limits and a zero pt license

Got a good run though and only had to stop once. It normally gets between 4-5 for speedy freeway trips or 6 for healthy burst around town.
