Hey IGALOP,

Hope your family probs turn out OK.

Yeh, I needed a new name. If you follow me around on a lengthy size trip,  I'll be stopping at a few BP's on the way.
Good when we need a few snacks???

On a serious note, we are certainly not mustang owners for petrol economy - The sound of a V8 is still a sound like no other.
:(

IGALOP is in for the W/E. Just having a few health issues with elderly relo's so not sure about meeting. Hope to be there Daponi.
Agree John, that a V8 at full sound, is poetic to the ears.
Thanks for the wishes Guys!;{

Herman & committee,
Excelent outing on Saturday to Graig Deans factory,I really now appreciate the time & effort that goes into converting LHD to RHD .. there is so much more to it.
Great turn out ... shame about the weather & it didn't rain afterall.Then again if I had of driven the fastback it would of p..... down.

Thirsty390 thanks also for being my driver yesterday, terrific day & afternoon.
Cheers, Geoff

Daponi,
Thanks for the suggestion,I did exactly that ... the FB battery was flat but got her started.
Cruzed up the Western hwy to see the outlaws & catch up with my bro' inlaws progress with his '70 Mach1

Just returned and put her to bed for another time.
Are you planning on the Bacchus March run at the end of the month?
Cheers, Caretaker

Mr Igalop, hope all goes well with the ralo's health issue's, hoping to catch up at the meeting on Wednesday or the Bacchus Marsh run.:(

Hey Geoff,
Glad to see you took the plunge today.
The car was very annoyed with you yesterday and decided to give you battery troubles today!!
Took mine out today again and filmed a small video clip of a drop back to first and a good squirt!!

Thanks Daponi,

I looked out the front just then.
A BP tanker is parked and waiting.

But, I wouldn't have it any other way. I've considered changing the manifold to twin 4 barrel carby's. After some minor research, they are not that readily available!!!. I would probably have to buy a servo!!

I need to catch up with Craig to pass on some pics and video of him and Graham down at Targa Tassie.

Hi Geoff,
The video was a training run.
It only went for about 30 seconds.
My mustang devoted wife was holding the camera.
I have sent you a U2U.
