Nah, hanson road is old. The BP truck stop is the place now. They even have deck chairs on the side street to sit on when they take their breaks.

Not that I know about these things.....

My brother lives up that way and it can be 2am and 2 degrees and they're still standing there, it freeks me out. I've been traveling that way for years and I grew up in Ferryden Park when it was sh!tville and I never noticed. If I pull over it would be like a school reunion or something ha ha ha

Ben, you already spend enough time fixing your car, occasionally you just have to drive it for the fun of it too :-)

Come on Ben, bring your car for a cruise. The last I saw her you were cleaning the new interior (thanks to Adam) to go in her. Would love to see her complete.

G'day Oliver i's good to see yet another V8 amongst our ranks
Ben, if your car is indeed in bits then I can always pick you up if you like I'm coming up fro Pt.Noarlunga anyway so it wont be exactly out of the way or anything. Not to sure if your bazooka like camera lens will fit in though. The car I mean

Tam, I wasn't refering to your cruise, but the few I've been on since!

Well, seeing as my suspension is getting done tomorrow (front at least) I may come along. As for the rest of the interior, hasn't been much progress had. I'm delaying the re-assembly until the stereo is finished, otherwise I'll have to pull it all out again. I should have the boot and back seat back together by the 27th, so we'll see what we see...

Fair enough. As long as people enjoy the cruises I do, I'll keep on doing them. But if I don't get any feedback (negative inc), I don't know what people want. Have just grabbed the street directory to start planning this next one.

So how come I didn't hear about these other cruises?? Does my B.O. really offend that much???

Anyway as for your attendance on the day, I think it's been decided. Shame about the interior, would have been happy to see you cruise in a complete car. Oh well.

Have lost a day stuffing around with cars - again. This time the import is for my mum. Lots of stuffing around. Will tell you when I see you.

Cheers Buddy.

Of all the non-soarer cruises that I have invited you guys along to over the years, no one has ever come along, hence I have simply stopped asking!

Now I have to put my skates on and actually do some more work on my car, grrr!

Stereo is almost finished, I just have to mount the sub amp and get rid of the rattles (I forgot how many rattles can be highlighted by a sub!) I thought I was going to have the sub amp in tonight, but I ran out of daylight. The main system amp took WAY longer than expected to mount. Even now the supports aren't quite straight, but seeing as you'll never actually see it, it can stay as it is.

Just need to drill some more holes and find that pack of infernal metal screws, it's hiding from me! I'm determined to find it and not buy another one, I know it's here somewhere... I reckon that packs of screws either get stolen from me lots, or they simply grow legs and run away from me!

Well, did you ever invite me along??

Wouldn't have allowed you to be the only soarer there, as would have needed to have a complete car for them to look at - just kidding.

Anyway, anytime you want to cruise give me a holla.

This is also why I sms'd people for this one coming up. Not all of us go on the forum on regular intervals, so reminders can help.


Tips for finding screws -
1. Get a big ass magnet and wave it around.
2. Buy another pack, guaranteed way of finding the first pack. Then return one for refund?
3. Slide your hand in every dumb nook and cranny, they like to hide in the smallest place possible

or

4. Do what I do, look under your nose. They are always there - the most obvious place.

Anyway thanks for the reminder about stereo, have to add that to the long list of 'chores to do' whilst I am supposedly relaxing on my holidays.

At least I have a few days away with nothing planned but floating in the spa, slothing on the lounge in front of the TV/DVD, occasionally going in search of food and drink. Bliss.

Ben, I figure you live somewhere near me so even if you didn't want to drive I'd still come to pick you up.

I now have a basic plan for next Sunday 26th August.

Starting: Big W Corner of Cross and Goodwood Rd.
Estimated time will be around 10am.

Want to do a re-run to get times (got a bit rainy up there today and I ran out of time to finish the last half). Will firm up and let you all know.

Cheers
