Thanks Fella,
Seeing as you are only up the road at Shelly beach sounds like a good excuse for a roll out....we will see what I can wiggle when this bolldy rain stops.
I love the color too...always been a fan of candy apple red

Hey Adam...
Im thinking we may have some good autumn weather seeing as we didnt get a summer around here so there will be many opportunities in the future weeks.
Organise a date and if the weather turns crap. oh well, we will organise another date.
Take the missus for a spin up the Old Pac Hwy to Pie in the Sky at Cowan one weekend. Great trip for bike/car enthusiasts. Another fella with a yellow Cobra red stripes gets up there for a coffee.
Just be careful Old Pac between Gossie and Brooklyn. CopCity if you know what I mean. But plenty of fun on the run from Brooklyn up to Cowan!!

Sure Pete, Still keen to run your way tomorrow either way...will network with the local cobs and see if they keen...if so will touch base...got your number either way.
I often do the PH run to PITS between car and bike club runs...and actually struggle to get the wife motivated for these as she orgs the DANE meet and greets for North of Sydney (she is very active with rescuing this breed as here hobby...but they make great in home security...LOL) ...clearly our cars are not compatible here...LOL.
I get what you say with the PH...but between the law and new tar road works I make CPT Slow look quick
The Caves Beach Meet up is Ideal and the CB Hotel is very supportive with their own segregated parking for car clubs...a definite run recommend for our club ITF...Mustang club ran smooth as and the tucker was great.
I think I hit a ton of posts now so will network over the week end!

Hi All,
Unfortunately I can't make it this weekend as I am involved in a torrid battle with an 'interesting' hub setup involving a ford axle, a recalcitrant HQ rotor and an LH Torana hub with a broken LH wheel stud that is now inside the hub, well half of it is and a substance that looks suspiciously like an epoxy of some description.
cheers
Legless
Looks like great weather though...sigh

Paul, you are more than welcome to ride shot gun, if time and weather permit...if you want a break from the refit.
BTW...found this classic pic and love the theme....
Its a commission of Carol Conners a singer/songwriter from the 60's who became mates with Carrol Shelby.
He made a deal that if she could write a popular song about his roadster then he would give her a cobra.
That song made it to number one written for the "rip Cords"..."Hey, little Cobra" in 1964...I posted it earlier, and Carroll C, scored a brand new burgundy Cobra!
http://www.cobraregistry.com/TechArt...rolConnors.pdf
So. a picture can tell a thousand words...I need to post more pics

Cool spot at Patonga.
I have sussed a few spots for some photos. There is a small reserve at the top of Toowoon Bay, but the council have it locked off so thats a no go. Down near the beach the surf lifesavers dont like the access for their watercraft blocked off. Crackneck Look out is pretty good for shots, but I may be able to get access to a area at Shelly Beach Golf Course. Its a area set aside for their wedding shots with pinetrees and Ocean backdrop. Its also no where near a stray golf ball shot so no dings. Only thing is Im playing 27 holes at Toukley Golf Course tommorow so I wont be there until about 3pm?

Snakes on the beach
Nice spot down at Patonga on a good day; last year in May the ROFs had a lunch at Patonga.
Thanks for the offer Ice but I have to work tomorrow afternoon.

Got approval from the Golfy for photos, but my phone will be off the duration of the day (Central Coast Golf District Rules) Phone will be back on around 2pm or you can leave a message. Im away in Brissy next weekend, but now have blanket approval at the golfy for shots (so long as I am there..) so we can make another time if you want...

Damn nice to meet Adam and Brett today. Both Cars are a credit to their owners and also gave some serious drool factor to the local punters at the club. The camera phones were a clicking!!!! I will work on some shots and post up here soon.
Cheers Guys!

The pleasure was ours to Pete (I am sure Brett concurs..these cars are even more impressive rolling in numbers), had a good run and appreciated you organizing the area for us. I am glad the locals got a buzz...so me thinks time to join the gang
