We'll be there...more show than shine though... :oops:
You can count this newest member in.
I can make it for the show and shine, dont know about the cruise though.
I am a 50:50. If the wife is working I will be there, if she is off I promised to spend the day with her (aint I sweet :P). I'll know late Friday night what the story is...

My wife just reminded me I have a father & son day at my boy's pre-school from 9 to 11am this Sat. It's a real shame as I was looking forward to it, not to worry there's always next time.
not to worry there's always next time
That's the show & shine, I'm talking about.

Yep, we are in the throws of organising a big show and shine at the markets along with some fund raising for the club.

I tried to convince her of this, but she still sees the Jeep as competition to our relationship rather than enhancing it .... :roll: :roll: :roll: ... when will she realise that I love them both equally ... LOL

So...You have to spend the day with her, but she won't spend the day with you...???
My wife was the same until I got her involved a little in what goes on. Now she drags her friends out with us!!!
Keep working on her, hopefully she'll come around a bit.

Couple of pics from the show and shine, I didn't get any from the cruise, too busy making sure I went the right way. It was great to look in the rear view and see 18 or so Jeeps following the beach roads around and the looks we got from the beach goers :)
I'd like to thank everyone for such a great turnout and hope we can get even more to our Flemington markets show and shine (details to come) :)

It was a great day out... thanks Steve for organising the drive. It was fun to see all the heads turn. The pub lunch wasn't too bad either.
Thanks to Troy for providing the carpark and very flash trophies and congrats to Rup for winning and Jetty for 2nd place.
It was great to see such a big turnout ... hopefully we get a good showing at the observation rally next week, which should be a lot of fun too!
WOW, looks like you guys had a great turn out... and sunny as well. Was torrential rain here all day :(
Bet you had some heads turning on the way to lunch :)
Looked like a great start to the day, love that little BIG green Jeep (Not sure what it's called but I like it). Seeing so many big rigs just makes me sad that the KJ has IFS :x .
I love looking at BIG Jeeps & you guys sure had that covered today :D

Whose was the Willys/Ford? Looks amazing. I bet it drove there too unlike a certain other 'army jeep'!

I'm having a blank on the owners name, he lives near me though. Yep he drove it there :) It does have a pretty modern driveline compared to original though, it's a really nice machine and turned a lot of heads.
Yours drove to the show and shine, just not very far ;)

That thing IS sweet...running a Ford 289 out of a Mustang with aftermarket fuel injection, Dana 30 front (locked) Dana 44 rear (locked) and an NP435 trans out of a F100.
I sorry i could not make it to the show & shine.I would like to thank Bernie for helping Dave, also i would like to send Troy a big thanks for his donation.
I must say we looked really cool - did we not?
cruisin the streets
going up hills with miles of Jeep in front and behind
and everyone smiling as we went around the roundabouts - no one could get on them and what a patient lot Sydney drivers where sitting there watching as one Jeep after another went around
thanks to Ando, Bill and Troy for lunch and a great walk and scenery at 'whatever the name of the place was again'
Thankyou to Bill and Troy for getting me back to a place I knew so I could find my way home (really do need a GPS)
congrats to the prize winners

Jumpers Park? near Watsons Bay.
It was a shame we lost you guys ... Mark gets home to find several missed calls on his mobile (sitting on the bench at home, useful.. not!) .. sorry 'bout that! I need to make sure you guys have my mobile no ... Mark never takes his phone anywhere. Anyway, sounds like you had a great time and did a bit more cruising!

yeah we kinda lost the main group...
still cant believe we didnt see ANYONE at the shops...
anyhow the rest of the day paned out good for the four of us...
we had couple of beers and some lunch, and enjoyed the scenery at the beach...
then we drove to north 'The Gap' and had a look around... i never seen it in day light before, so it was kinda cool... took some pics and then headed along new sould head road to see some ritzy places, then hoped into York Motors at Rushcutters Bay to look at the JK... it was raining and the sales people are kinda boring... should have ramped to SRT8 and see if we get some action out of them...
then we snooped around the the back streets and then send Ando on his way into some serious traffic jam, welcome to SYDNEY....
we lead bernie back to the workshop so she can get herself back home, troy and myself cleaned up a bit more and returned the BBQ etc...
the cruise kinda conitnued with couple of happy laps in the city after some chicken schnitzal dinner, then watch troy run away from some security gards....
good day out... pity i didnt get to work :roll:
When will we see the photos taken from the forklift ?
A few more just for you then Chris
Looking good 8)
