Hey Justang, I'll fly the flag for the 66 colony & meet this lot. Haven't had a run with you melbourne mustangers yet, will be great to cast an eye over your ponies. Looking forward to the day! See you at red rooter. Luke.:(

Excellent Luke,
Another 66 ... at least I won't feel out numbered.
I'm trying to find another couple 65-66's so we can out number these 67 guy's.

I'll u2u you my mobile # so if anything happens you can contact us.

J1 ... who are you joining??

Mate I'm going to take months to get all the bugs and crap off the front of my car after the return trip from Adelaide.

If I wash it again... That'll mean twice in one week ;x

Maybe I'll dust off the GT instead...

No. That looks like crap as well.

Maybe the x's KE Laser or one of the utes, then again the fairmont might get written off tomorrow, so one last hoorah for that on Sunday.

I don't know... ;)

Go Pete.

They might run out of room down there in the Mustang section.
I'm still not commited yet.

Mac1

Sounds like we may meet up after all, Gone65 is talking with Thirsty390 about meeting our group in Essendon sunday morning & joining both groups together.

Lets hope the weather stays fine!

IGALOP · « **Reply #37 on:** April 10, 2010, 09:59:58 am »

Yes Geoff, just a bit concerned re the weather forecast!
Doesn't look all that promising.:_
Please "No more hail, Hughie".:*

Macka · « **Reply #38 on:** April 10, 2010, 10:03:46 am »

Yes, should be a good turn out and cruise, weather dependant...

:(

IGALOP · « **Reply #39 on:** April 10, 2010, 06:32:59 pm »

Only 18 degrees Celsius , windy and several showers will probably keep me away from Flemington tomorrow guys.;1
Will check radar in the morning but not confident!

C'mon Johnno, take a Shammi. :(

IGALOP · « **Reply #41 on:** April 10, 2010, 08:19:40 pm »

If the Bureau have got the forecast wrong again, I'll be there , but................?????::
I'll bring a chamois if I turn up.;*

IGALOP · « **Reply #42 on:** April 11, 2010, 03:41:10 pm »

Mac1 where were you????????
I turned up with my chamois, to dry up, after the 3 or 4 showers we got.
Reckon there was around only 450- 500 cars and probably 80 or so of those were Mustangs. Weather was pretty blustery and sometimes wet.;1
Great showing by our breed but not too pleased to see a few Kingswood and other Aussie type cars let in. ;3
Supposed to be all American!!! Might bring the wife's Elantra Sports Hatch next year for a bit of a dip at an award.::
By the way Macka, quite a few of the Corvettes there, were up for sale.
Hopefully those that took pics will post them.
Still a good day, but isn't it ALL American?

Macka · « **Reply #43 on:** April 11, 2010, 06:54:07 pm »

Gents, sorry I didn't get there. Decided yesterday to give the Fastback a flex and organised to meet up with the run in there but when I got up it was pi55ing down with rain and the weather web site was displaying hail due. I sms'ed half a dozen to get the message through. Re-evaluated later but started raining again.

Hate that. ;]

Any pics gents?

Tim, sorry to hear aboaut Lawny's car.

IGALOP · « **Reply #44 on:** April 11, 2010, 06:59:40 pm »

R U sure their was no other reason , such as a struggle under the rugs?:w:w
j1 mentioned that you had cancelled your impending cruise during his early morning phone discussion with you.
Still there was impressive numbers of Stangs at Flemington.

Thirsty428 · « **Reply #45 on:** April 11, 2010, 07:08:51 pm »

Hey Mac1.

Ya missed out mate. But, it was a hard day to pick. Fully understand

The mustangs were out in major force. In fact I would like to commend all who battled the weather and displayed their pony's proud.

A fantastic mustang display.

I have a few pics but on my daughters camera. Will need to work it out!!!! How funny - in the confusion with the weather this morning I forgot the camera. My 14 year comes out with - DAD, just in case I grabbed mine!!

IGALOP · « **Reply #46 on:** April 11, 2010, 07:25:21 pm »

Mine was also left at home ...............still charging the batteries when I got home!
It's an age vs memory thing I think!

Mac1... What time did she end up leaving in the end :*

I was surprised at how many members turned up considering the sh1tful weather, that early this morning put on.

Thanks for the cuppa Ian. Were your neighbours that were sleeping in impressed when we vacated your street ???

Cowgirl that pic of the front of mine looks great, I'm glad I spent god knows how many hrs last night cleaning all the bugs & crap off it after the Adelaide run.
After taking 450 or so odd shots today myself and a heap of video, I realised that the both cameras were still in the boot of the car and it was just my imagination playing tricks on me (Must be the cold weather).

So at the end of the day I managed 2 pics and 2 vids ;)

It was good to catch up with you all,
see you for the $900 jackpot at the next MOCA Vic meeting, I'll shout you all a light beer if I win :2 :(
