G’day Clay
Well done on your Ute resto project, with this weekend being the reward. Get it washed, grab a coffee and cruise on to the Nats...... who hooo!

Yes thanks Brett. Made a few contacts to call in on locally. Met Stuart Parisian lilac finally. BS Brendan, FB delivery, Greg EK283, Fex , Ashley.

The QLD club are awesome! Greg, Tim, Ben, Tony, brian, Brett, Mike and all the others, and supporters. Inspiring.

Much chatting and getting to know the WA and SA folks better. Sharing stories of the trip up. Shamelessly voted for all the SA cars wherever possible, specially a certain one.

Sounds terrific. Takes a lot of commitment to organise an event like this and sounds like the organisers have done it well.

Your ute must be the most well known in the country- that must be worth lots of votes. If I was there you'd have my vote (unless I had a car😀)

Good pics too.

Thanks Stephen. Home? Don't want to think about that yet. Rear rubbing bit more now since I visited FB delivery. Time to offload head.
