Default Pics (Vic) Knox Car Show 09/10/2007

Was a sunny afternoon, got there at 6pm, not many cars had arrived yet but more arrived later - most cars arriving at about 6.30pm.

Nice to meet a few members but sorry didnt chat for much as I wanted to get as many pics as possible

It got Cold real Quick and Dark :(

Pics are taken from a Motorola V3x Camera Phone so when it got a bit darker the pics are not great.........

But anyway ENJOY:-

Man there were some awesome cars there by the looks of things!
What ever did happen to that bloke with the purple car that used to be on the forums, he doesn't visit here anymore?
How would late model vehicles (namely ba/bf xr8 F6 , SS, Maloo utes) be accepted, or is this more of an older car gathering?

Whens the next one?

Um ..... you havnt learnt yet have you!!! Oh thats right, not married yet ..... "Honey, just nipping out for a bit, see you soon!" Remember that for next time. It works....... My Mrs' wasnt there :

Was a surpisingly good night seeing it was the first and the amount of cars was great! Wasnt expecting to see so many there.

Thanks for those who helped out with the water pump. Geatly appreciated. Some loose bolts and the seal broke sending water everywhere. Shows how well a clevo goes though with water peeing out everywhere. Hope you enjoyed the tour of KNOX. THanx J & C or fthe lift home

Mark and Tracey's new shoes looked grouse!!!! Bout time somehting filled the guards! Now for a bigger photo!

doh! Dave, my XB did the same (water pump gasket) the week before the Ford nats. Must be that time of year for it ;) I had mine fixed within an hour.

I just undid the radiator cap so there was no pressure and drove it home.
