Yep thats right guys and gals , Betty has been engineered and now she is off for a blue slip.
And can I tell you what a relief it is.
Im on the home straight now and if the RTA get things rolling she would have been built with rego within 12 months.
Damm im happy today !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  |

Well done Paul - You will have to give all us locals a run down on your engineer - sounded like a reasonably painless process?
Cant wait to see her on the road.
Cheers

Thanks guys the engineer is a great guy called Peter Gillard.
He is in Leichhardt 0412 546 825.
He is very fast and fair, but in saying that he plays by the rules.
And knows of all the new ADR,s .
Thanks Paul

Youve done well to reach rego after your first year of having the kit, well done. I started in July 2002 and I reckon Ive got 2 years to go.
Congratulations.
Regards.

Next month will be two years since getting the chassis and body, and I reckon we are still at least 12 months away from wacking on the sidepipes.
Paul well done on getting it finshed so quickly, and with such a good build quality.

Slow 427 well done but there had to be motivation there somewhere to achieve a 12 month build, what was it? Could I say clearly you're single?
My wife tends to look at me now as if I am a stranger coming in back from the shed and thats only since Feb last year. But motivation gets you going, for me it's not having to transplant a different engine over the AU if I get it registered this year, and I do expect to be registered!
So what's the secret?
And finally to end the mistaken identity, my new avitar spells it all out distinctly. Ignore that it's currently on my buzz bomb twin cam, the cobra will be the official slowmeister when its time comes!
So you can call me Mr Slowy!
Hope you've got Slow 427 plates, Slow 427!!

That's the right attitude, but as I have a ball and chain and 3 dependants it's a tad more difficult to take a year off!!
But the cheese n kisses does understand my disappearing act.
Good luck too you and now happy driving!!

The secret is to get her indoors envolved in the shed work and ask forher help not just for the odd beer to be opened for you.If that does not work buy her a mustang and watch your progges take off.
