Count me and Claire in as humble passengers this round :|

[buster cunningham]

No celica yet but i'd love to meet up and view some classics.

[ta22-3tgte]

Sure thing! Apart from two minor problems. 1) My car is at a workshop 2) I lost my license for 3 months

On the flip side, the damage to my cylinder head has been repaired (bent valves, cracked valve guides) and a mechanic is going to be putting the head back on and timing it for me. I don't know if you guys remember, but the short of it is, one of my cam timing gears shattered into 3 pieces and ended up in my sump. Bummer! I was told that was pretty unlucky. What can you do?

Now I'm also assuming that most of you will think I'm a sissy for taking my car to a workshop instead of fixing it myself, but I actually did all the grunt work of pulling everything apart, some guys off here have helped me out with advice and where to get parts, and will be putting everything back together after the mechanic has finished timing the head on Monday.

But thats why we own these crappy old cars right!? We love it!!

Oh and I can probably get my brother or someone to drive me, so not having a license shouldn't be a problem.

[ta22chick]

hopefully grimis has his rego by then if so we are so there!!!

[Scoobzd]

hopefully i will be there with my old man

we might even have our 2nd sex-bomb (74 '22) on the road although that might be pushing shit up hill

[lt1972]

would be interested in meeting all, however my lady booked antinatal for oct 6th and 7th (Bathurst weekend) to which there was much disagreement! . so it was rescheduled for 10th and 11th November but that means i wont make it

[Stock_22]

Yes!! A cruise right at my back door. I'll be there, hopefully ... Are we coming back through Samford (some nice long sweeping bends through there)

[sillycar chick]

We can do James. Do you know of any good meeting places around the gap, say on waterworks road? Like a carpark of sorts that wont be too busy on a sunday.... im having trouble finding one in my refidex hence why the meeting point is still a "TBC"

[Stock_22]

The Gap shopping centre (1000 waterworks road), meet on the top level of the multi level car park? Theres a Maccas there so its pretty easy to find. Only about a klick from the start of Mt Nebo Rd.

[sikx5]

Thanks for the PM! I'll try my best to make it, i cant say no to mt.nebo

[Major Clod]

OH i am so there now... Hell I even got off my arse and bought a set of front wheel bearings today, hopefully going in tomorrow!

I was actually up around Nebo last sunday in the celica!

Looking forward, any date other than the 23rd or 24th of November and I'm there!
