And heres a few fotos , the fabled third Chariot was out on a VERY rare appearance -

And there was a few forumites caught on camera as well - I didnt get a chance to take many pics because I was too busy with the checkpoint

This thing won the most inappropriate wheels award .....

Great Day, great cruise, thanks for all the work Blacky, you guys rocked, easily and always the best checkpoint.

NoMAD, now that I know what a PM is (computer guru I am not), I'm at the GP that week in Melbourne, so I won't be available, otherwise she would have been sweet.

Now, back to those other 10 PM's that I've never known where there.........

Hey Gordon , what running gear was in that flat black panno ? I noticed the 4 wheel discs and said to me mate at the checkpoint "that thing is more than what it seems"

The lilac FB looked bloody nice too

Blacky, the pano was running a full VSVR ECOTEC V6 drivetrain, with modified everything ie commie tunnel for the 4 speed etc. There was a fella there who did the conversion (not the owner) who does a few a year. Looked like ALOT of work by the time it's all done and legal, big bucks, would drive really nice I'm sure, but the DPI drama's and the associated paperwork these days would make it a really unattractive proposition I reckon.

It had power windows, a/c, DVD player with rear reversing camera etc, alot of work had gone into it. Even as it sat with the flat black paint and general wear and tear, a real top looking machine.

Oh for a money tree..........
