That is a real shame to hear.

So I'm guessing you don't like surprises then?

Thanks for the laughs. The Enzo is my pick.

Did you rebuild the brake booster Mick or did you have someone do it for you? Engine bay looks the goods.

It's worth posting in here as well Dingo. http://www.viczcar.com/forum/index.php/topic,7046.300.html

Ouch, looks like a terrible place to break down. Did they send out someone to check on you or did you have to call a towie? I have always wondered if they keep an eye on the cameras and send a vehicle out if someone breaks down in a tunnel.

I was thinking the same and all of their hoons were 50 year olds! Next week they're doing the Land Rover Series 1 and the following week it's a Triumph Stag so I imagine the tone of the episodes will change along with the type of owners the cars attract. Should be a good watch.

Episode 1 is on right now. Looks pretty interesting. http://www.abc.net.au/tv/programs/for-the-love-of-cars/

I imagine it will sell before you get pics up at that price.

Just came across this gif of one of the scenes. It shows the creativity behind the camerawork. http://i.imgur.com/v604GpS.gif

Pommy Mike is visiting again next April so Peter will be hosting another Cars & Coffee on Sunday 12 April in leafy Sylvania. Much like this one: http://www.viczcar.com/forum/index.php/topic,14071.0.html A bit too early for all the details but they will be posted up closer to the date. I don't want to put pressure on the guy but he has kind-of promised to have his GTO build done by then.

Ahh, I see. I was on the mobile so didn't spot the mention above.

Andy, whether it's in Aug or Sep unfortunately I won't be able to attend (I'm out of the country) but I'm happy to post up details or for someone else to take over for the West run.

Welcome Liesl. Good luck with your restoration. Will you be posting a project journal?

Also, do you expect this car to be your daily driver? Rely on it to get you to work/school each day? Welcome to the forum.

Based on feedback it sounds like every second month might be too frequent to get decent numbers to each event. Instead, how about we bring in each season with a Sunday morning meet? First Sunday of each season: 7 September (Spring) 7 December (Summer) 1 March (Autumn) 7 June (Winter) etc

Great write up! Love your determination.

I was so tempted to put a bid in. It sold for US$1.76!!! But postage was US$72.40.

You need to check a box for the system to save a sent pm in your folder. Jason will get back to you I'm sure.

How is it looking now Gav? Also, curious why you guys went with a stain over a straight up clear varnish..?
