    with adam and partner there, and the club car at home, there should be many photos! and not the usual 90% ke35 - 10% everything else

    bit unlucky with the rs40, maybe i can photochop (mspaint) it in to some pics later. how much more you have to go on it Simon?

    Nothing left to do to it in my opinion, it's runs like a dream, and drives the same way from what I can tell by driving it up and down the street that it resides in.

    vinyl (or lack thereof) roof still covered in old glue?

    Yep, but is aesthetics really a road going concern?

    I plan to either re-vinyl the roof, or paint it hammer-tone black to appear like vinyl, until I can spare time and money to respray the car one colour, but I would have thought this, and dried dirt on the underbody of the car, would be of no conern to whether the car is suitable for Club Registration.

    plus its not full of silicone ,
    nostalgia is not what it used to be:

    Any body bother to turn up to the car show, l got there about 12.00 and the only Toyota that was there was a MS75 owned by someone with the name H Tate. Nice to see the car club turn up like they said they would.

    Yeah, i was there

    Adam showed up just after 12 along with his co-driver and Peter from TCCAV.

    i was one of 4 jap cars, the others being an R31 GTS, twin-turbo 300ZX and a Daihatsu Copen.

    pics will be coming later. i didn't bother to take any of my MS65, but Adam did.

    Yep none of us there... buggered if I know how I came up with all these photos then!!

    http://picasaweb.google.com/adamlaws...eat=directlink

    Good show - not enough Japanese metal for me, but lots of gorgeous American chrome and fins and plenty of Aussie classics.

    Hope we can get a few more cars from the club in to next years event and Tate doesn't have to carry us!! Perhaps the Celica will even be ready by then
