Ian

Ummm ... I think the banners and flags are in Sydney.

Perhaps some travelling down (if any) might be able to bring them??

I'm out - work getting in the way.
Will try and swing past after work.

Hi all,
I've been lurking around these forums for the last few weeks reading up all I can about muzzies in the hope that one day I'll pick up a 64.5-66 coupe of my own. But have to get this wedding thing done and dusted first. :)

Anyhow, I just wanted to say I'll be dropping by on Sunday at some stage to have a good look at all your babies (and maybe say g'day), and take some happy-snappy too, to aide in my dreaming.

moe · « **Reply #12 on:** March 14, 2010, 05:12:33 pm »

Welcome to the forum MickOs, how did you go? See anything you like?? I think there is a show on next weekend as well which should have a better turnout.

Anyone else go? I saw spider and a few others when I dropped in after work. Saw a nice red shelby collect an award:(

rockerfella · « **Reply #13 on:** March 14, 2010, 09:52:56 pm »

Went briefly before lunch. Some nice cars out, and I wanted to steal kb428!

Mick0s · « **Reply #14 on:** March 15, 2010, 09:44:14 am »

I dropped in around lunch time.
Filled myself up with nostalgia remembering the good old days (okay, only about 3 tears ago) with my XE Falcon (mine never looked anything like those ones though) and my brothers XP Falcon (of which I notices a distinct lack of at this show, 1 or two utes was all I could find).

And naturally had a good perv at the mustangs.

Got some snaps, and have put them up in my photobucket album.

(wasn't entirely impressed with how a lot of these photos turned out, and I SWEAR I took more than I ended up with, can't imagine why i didn't get a shot of the front of the Mach 1.)

Hi Mick
I like the last photo. Any chance you can email it to me?
Cheers

What did others think about the '68 GT S code convertible? Apparently a pretty rare car in that configuration. Not ine BTW (although it would make a nice companion...)

moe · « **Reply #17 on:** March 16, 2010, 07:33:18 am »

Any one get any pics of the '68 GT S code convertible? It had left by the time I got there:-

Mick0s · « **Reply #18 on:** March 16, 2010, 09:30:23 am »

Pardon my ignorance... but is this the 68 GT S Code 'vert?

And Ian, I'll send you the pics when I get home from work this arvo. As stated, they're not the best pics, and that one was unfortunately a little off-center, but could be cleaned up a bit. I might even have a quick play in photoshop and see what I can come up with.

Note: And I just realised that I forgot to hide peoples number plates. Luckily photobucket lets me edit online.

jusTANG · « **Reply #19 on:** March 16, 2010, 09:51:02 am »

opps missed it was a special car....... me and my mustang knowledge still needs alot of work

moe · « **Reply #20 on:** March 16, 2010, 11:58:45 am »

That is the one!

I haven't seen it before; did it have ACT plates?

Rich · « **Reply #21 on:** March 16, 2010, 12:07:59 pm »

Belongs to a fella who used to live in canberra. Nice bloke/rare car. Love the J code fastback too!!

Ausjacko · « **Reply #22 on:** March 16, 2010, 10:16:23 pm »

Received the pic, thanks.

Yes that is the S code. The owner, a nice bloke, did some amazing work to fit home made headers to that engine. You couldn't get a fag paper between No1 pot pipe and the strut tower. But there was no signs of rubbing. His work on the dash was pretty impressive also.

Cheers
Ian

Spider · « **Reply #23 on:** March 19, 2010, 08:42:03 pm »

It belongs to the guy who owned 'Macs' and converted Mustangs for a number of years here in Canberra. Now lives down the coast. I can't think of his name.
