October club run

Post by Blacky »

Hi gang,

This months run - sorry for the late notice I have been working away a lot lately - will be on Sunday October 31 to the Nostalgia drags , car show and swap meet at Kwinana motorplex . We will have 2 meeting points for this one, the northeners will meet at Cockburn Central McDonalds carpark at 9 for a 9:30 departure , and the southern crew will meet up at Muzz Buzz Rockingham on Enterprise Way at 9 for a 9:30 departure .

There is usually several hundred old and not so old cars attending on the day , plus the opportunity to race your car if you like, email for more details if you would be interested in that, The swap meet starts at 7 so if you are keen to buy or sell bits you will need to be there early and we will meet you there ! Jamie and Carl no doubt you 2 will be at the swap ??

Well, we had a grand day out , started out with a swap meet where I bought a steering column, flywheel and clutch and a starter motor for the grand total of $10 , had the column for about 5 minutes and gave it to a club member who needed it ImageImage, also found a couple of handy bits for a certain eastern states based speed freak ImageImageImage

Many thanks. Covid sure has changed the world... that's the first swapmeet I've been to in 2 years :( (and the first one ever that I've attended virtually :lol: )

12-flat is not bad out of the 'munro. Guessing he's not running the 173 and Traumatic :mrgreen:

Cheers,
