Any excuse for a beer the question is when? Sat arvo or a Sun Arvo to a pub perhaps could offer my front yard at Mount Gravatt East. Beer Beer Beer. Want to keep it fairly casual. Good excuse to meet. 8) 8)

I'm sure we'd have some good onlookers and even a few stop in and look if we were all out the front of your place Mick :P

Just park ya other cars on the footpath too and we could line em up.

Oh give me land, lots of land. I wish.
Well looks can be very deceiving, karsten.

This is my place, and one of my sons cars is missing from the space. The EK is currently at my parents place, the VF is inside the garage along with my wifes car. No space, no land for shed. The land across the road from us is vacant (where the vf photo was taken), great for parking, but council probably would object to a shed.

Image

The VF still has a few rust issues, fairly common for them, and a lot worse than the EK. And the front brakes have something wrong, severe pulling to the right. Having got the left wheel off yet to look

Son could be sold, thought of ebay, $1 start, no reserve.
Only kidding, I would never sell him. :)

No one would pay the dollar!

I like the FEK idea, very creative.
What I would like to have is a Cheky look (Chevy and EK combo)
I do like Holdens American parentage. Yes the '57............... and Nomad.

I'm OK with any location (within reason) However the next 2 weekends have been booked out. Family event, birthday parties, Job promises.
Would love to bring the EK, (Won't happen) or the VF (need brakes fixed first). Don't wait however, I don't want to hold it up (Not sure of plans after the 2nd weekend - too many things to do and no time). I'm sure I'll catch up at some stage, the next one. If I can get to the first one I will.

Aye Craig thanks for the offer mate. If the meet up is before my cars done.. i'll take you up on the offer :>

Unless i drive my HJ there instead..

Although going by your signature and avatar.. you have a grey in it.. and i'd love to see / hear a grey in person.. i've seen two in my life.. one original and it was quiet and sounded rather pissy.. the other was a bucket of shit thats getting rebuilt.. to stock specs :shock:
