Hey, no problem Chris. Was good to meet you and check out the beast. It looks wider than the other one you have on there. I have a narrower one that might look better although you could just trim it down I suppose.

This was posted on the SA Club Facebook page recently



Good Afternoon, please delete if I am not allowed to post this here.
I am desperately trying to reach some of my dads old mates as his phone was destroyed and we have lost all of his contacts. And he was apart of the Fb Ek Club so thought I would try here.

---‐--------------------‐------------‐------------‐------------‐---------

In Loving Memory of Chris Perrett

Hi everyone,
It’s with great sadness that I share the news of my dad’s passing, Christopher (Chris) Ian Perrett, who left us on 30/04/25.

Many of you would have known him through his lifelong passion for cars and motorsport.
Dad was involved in so many clubs and communities — too many to list — including demolition derby, drag racing, and the burnout scene here in SA.
He was a proud member of the Monaro Club, Cadillac Club, FB/EK Club, SMASA, and UMS, and made lifelong friendships through his love of cars.

Sadly, Dad’s phone was damaged and we’ve lost a lot of contact details for his close mates.
If you knew someone who was close to him, please pass this message on — we’d really appreciate it.

Funeral Details:
Date: 2nd June
Time: 10.30am
Location: Taylor & Forgie Funeral Home - 98 Adelaide Road Gawler

We’d love for anyone who knew Dad to join us in celebrating his life and saying goodbye.
Thank you,
Rachelle and FamilyImage
