Herman, I have the club trailer in my possession. If you want to see it again leave $1.95 and a cold can of pepsi max in the telephone booth outside of the Melbourne Bowling Club  by 8pm next Thursday night. NO COPS. If you fail to meet my demands the trailer gets it! OK?;2

And we were thinking of sending the trailer up to Wangaratta to feed you all up there, with Daponi as the guest Chef.
With that sort of attitude you'll never get to sample Daponi's BBQ lasagne.:+:+:+:+:+

By the way, we might be the Swine Flu State Red66, but we enjoyed the State of Origin the other night! Did you??:+:-   When are you guys gunna get on top of Qld again??

Well I hope you all enjoy my car. :p It is a 2007 GT500 Vista Blue with Tungsten Stripes currently being converted by Mustang Motorsport before coming over to Perth. I have owned this car for almost two years in Canada before we relocated home to Perth. Actually it should be finished by the 13th and almost ready to ship.

I am actually in Melbourne this week, so hoping to get to see it myself while I am here.

Luv that car and hanging out to drive it again.  

It has been signed by the two engine builders (Sigs on strut towers) and Henry Ford III (Sig on rad cover), while at Dearborn (The home of Mustangs).

Enjoy the day guys and hope the weather gets better.

Peter.

LOL Thanks Herman!!!

I spent a couple of hours at Mustang Motorsport today. What a great bunch of guys doing some magnificent work. I totally recommend any of you guys that can, get down this weekend and have a look at the work they are doing and the quality of cars they have there.
My car will still be there waiting for the compliance plate but it is basically finished.
They have a great variety of cars there at the moment, including the new 2010 GT Mustang.

Enjoy the day and hope the weather is kind.

Peter.

Once again a great session, awesome to see The Mustang 2010 GT, and Shelby 500KR etc, it was great to get an understanding and more so appreciation on what’s involved in  a quality conversion, Craig and the crew at Mustang Motor Sport are real friendly and genuine blokes, First time I had met Craig and his crew whom I must comment were so friendly and great and interesting to chat with.
 Nez and Adam did fantastic job with the catering, great quality sausages guys, thanks to the club and Mustang Motor sport for making today possible.

Cheers,
daponi

How did you cook the snags Daponi?
Well done, medium or rare??:+:+
Title: Mustang Motorsport Nuts & Bolts Day
Post by: Bllett on June 13, 2009, 07:45:03 pm
:2 medium and sensational day, they gave away a car, your name came up at the draw as you were not present you where disqualified lol :(:(
Title: Mustang Motorsport Nuts & Bolts Day
Post by: IGALOP on June 13, 2009, 08:24:23 pm
If they gave away a Mustang, then its not so bad, as I already have one.:(:+
But if I missed out on one of your medium gourmet sausages then I would be adjunctly unimpressed!:w

Post by: Thirsty428 on June 13, 2009, 08:28:04 pm
Where were you IGALOP?
Not there to collect your prize??
You could of had your hands on a 2007 Shelby GT?

Great day.
Snags were pefect by the way. Great job.:(
Those new mustangs tend to idle a little smoother than ours!

How ya doing Thirsty390?
Love the new moniker.
Had some family probs to attend to and haven't got any more room in the garage anyway!:(
Title: Mustang Motorsport Nuts & Bolts Day
Post by: Thirsty428 on June 13, 2009, 09:04:40 pm
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!;{

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

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!!

I forgot to add - I then went to the local BP for a REFILL.

John - Thirsty 390!!!
Title: Mustang Motorsport Nuts & Bolts Day

The local BP must love you ... my gage hardly moved today,in actual fact the temp gage moved further then the fuel needle.  :(

John ur the only guy i know that gtes followed around whilst cruzing :by a fuel tanker lol

Title: Mustang Motorsport Nuts & Bolts Day
Post by: Thirsty428 on June 14, 2009, 09:52:03 pm
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 have sent you a U2U.
