Yup, we filed out the paperwork on the cruise on Friday night, there will be at least 6 club cars there on the day. Our new gazebo and grille badges should be there as well :ebiggrin:
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

Looks like I'm out of luck with the FB to drive to the show. Leaky wheel cylinders, Hard clutch pedal,leaky water pump and lumps in the tyres. :unimpresseddd: Thats what happens when you let them go to sleep for a few years.
You'll get to see it one day Blacky.
I'll have to manage with a dodgy clutch on the FC ute. :ughh:
It will be on show with the FE/FC club.

Your not wrong there Blacky.
Out of 14 or so vehicles only 2 every day cars are drive-able.
Now all I have to do is find/make time for an espresso maintenance on the FC ute and brothers FC sedan.
Drained his fuel tank yesterday (fuel was clear in colour, not driven since last GM show) filled with fresh fuel and oiled the cylinders, fired up straight away but she was noisy.
I thought the timing gear was shot. Turns out the water pump had a slow leak whilst in storage and corroded the water pump bearing :unimpresseddd: .

Did my entry as part of the FB EK Club too.

The ute has had a thorough polishing this week and will be left int the shed under her blanket till next weekend, looking shinier than ever 8) 8) . Hoping there's not too many bugs on the drive up to Perth.

As per the email sent out - meeting at Muzz Buzz in Bayswater - 497 Guildford Rd , Bayswater and plan to leave there at 9am to travel to the show

Is anyone bringing a ute van or wagon who could swing past Micks place in Lockridge and pick up the gazebo please ?
Mick just picked it up from my place and he tells me it's too big to fit in the boot of his sedan.
