What would the members like to see done? (Discounting Auto Transmission rebuilds...)

Dazda is on the level & he owns a Zed. Let him be.

It lives!

This is being organized by the AusRotary club: http://www.ausrotary.com/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=201202 Details copied from AusRotaryare: Before the 2009 bushfires, Marysville was a popular destination for car cruises. It is a beautiful location with some great photo opps, and the drive includes the Black Spur which is a great bit of road. Since the fires, redevelopment has been slow, and many tourists have stayed away because they didn’t want to get in the way. I contacted a Marysville community email address asking whether they would be keen for us to come to town and got a couple of very quick and enthusiastic replies which I have added to the end of this post. So who would be interested in a cruise from Bunnings in Bayswater via Coldstream on the way there and Yarra Glen on the way back, to Healesville for a fuel stop, then over the Black spur to Marysville? I would encourage you to buy lunch in town at the bakery or café, then meet at Gallipoli Park (the footy ground) for lunch. Christine Adams, the president of the local tourism association is keen to have a chat to us as a group about what has happened since the fires so it would be educational too. Spending money in the town is the best way to help the recovery process. Date is Sunday 27th March - my 8 year old son virtually begged me to organise this one. If you are interested let me know. Official Route (note we are starting at Bunnings Bayswater not Anaconda - the carpark is bigger). Google Maps does not seem to recognise the Maroondah Highway past Dame Nellie Melba's house, and wants to go towards Yarra Glen the cut across St Huberts Road. We may as well follow that route anyway. http://maps.google.com.au/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Canterbury+Rd&daddr=-37.804039,145.3559439+to:Anderson+St+to:Maroondah+Hwy+to:-37.6945061,145.405581+to:123+Maroondah+Highway,+Healesville+VIC+3777+Sanctuary+Service+Station+to:Gallipoli+Park,+Marysville,+Victoria+to:Healesville,+Victoria+to:Yarra+Glen,+Victoria+to:lilydale+lake+lilydale+vic&geocode=FWjHvv0dqMmoCA%3BFfknv_0dp_SpCCkLhmzUnC_WajEwm_HrdFYEEw%3BFfLcv_0d4O-pCA%3BFcldwP0dMU2qCA%3BFdbTwP0djbaqCCkhOYLTWCvWajFwkwbtdFYEEw%3BFZ1lwf0drU-sCCGFerCKN7ycpw%3BFQ6aw_0dG_yvCCEAt0IUpXkFDw%3BFbtywf0dzmmsCCn9VAAwtisoazHw5owhdVYEBQ%3BFYllwf0d9j2qCCmTIylJO9PXajGAz4whdVYEBQ%3BFSK3v_0dePCpCCEIKcUuqBfhpw&hl=en&mra=dme&mrcr=1,2&mrsp=3&sz=19&via=1,4&sll=-37.72468,145.37862&sspn=0.001044,0.002401&ie=UTF8&ll=-37.723619,145.37884&spn=0.001044,0.002401&t=h&z=10 Meeting Times & Places (all approximate) 9.30 for 10.00 departure - Penninsula Pre-Cruise Meet - Anaconda Frankston Note - Route will be via Eastlink - you will need a tag or pass 10.00 for 10.30 departure - Bunnings Bayswater, Canterbury Road Bayswater (front part of carpark is usually empty) 11.15 - 11.30 - Fuel Stop - Healesville Shell 12.30 - Lunch from Bakery or takeaway in old car museum 12.30 - 13.00 - Take your lunch to Gallipoli Park for talk with Tourism Association president Christine Adams 13.00 - 14.00 - picnic lunch, show & shine at Gallipoli Park or visit to Steavensons Falls (optional) 14.00 - 16.00 - return to Lilydale Lake It will be a full day...

Sorry guys, but I only just got online - he's been a busy little spammar! I'm deleteing any posts by 'Bennypars' now - I'm also deleteing any posts by anyone called 'Ben' or 'Benny', just to be sure... FWIW Gav is the only person who can delete/ban users (which is slightly annoying), so we'll just have to wait for gav to delete the account.

Relieve stress & come for a drive Dimitri! The paperwork can be signed later

Yes I'm going - assuming I don't have to work Saturday...

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhahahahahahaha! Auto to manual converions right? You cant knock the s/bush into the auto flexplate crank spacer as it's smaller' just leaver it off the back of the crank & you'll see you can press the spigot into back if the crank without any problems!

More Pics from Peter:

Dave is currently in Tampa, Florida & just recovered from a bout of food poisoning! Happy Birthday mate!

Do a compression test to confirm, Josh.

I hope you kept the original wet inserts, Chris!!!

I look forward to seeing some progress Andrew - & might see you out on a cruise one day

Many many thanks Pete! Was great to have everyone here today - pity more people didn't take up the offer...

Sooooo many people are missing out... There's only 15 people who have bothered to attend

Correct.

Bloody hell Ash.... That's Daniel & Ash who have dropped out at the last minute

BUMP - the day is getting closer!

Back on topic please guys...

I've never heard of it Get one & let us know, G-man!

Congrats on the purchase I wish you luck as restoring such an early 240Z is not an easy process - especially for someone (I'm guessing) in their early twenties? What are your plans for it? I REALLY hope your going to restore it close to Original Factory Condition...
