Hi everyone. I have another lovely old girl to add to the coupe owners registry (This is also my first post... ).

Goldie is an October 73 XB GS Fairmont in Tropic Gold (H) with Black (B) trim.

I hope you like her.

Cheers,

Simon (Mornington Peninsula, Victoria).

Nice coupe Simon.
Given your location, maybe we will see you on the Coupe Club's "Dromana pub lunch & drive-in" run one day.
Cheers Rob.

Hi Rob,

Thanks Rob for the positive feedback. I certainly hope to make it for the Dromana run. In fact I have just recently sent off my application to the Club will try and make it to the AGM. Incidentally, (I hope this doesn't seem like a silly question) but do members usually bring their coupes to the monthly meetings (weather permitting)?

Cheers,

Simon

Hi Simon. We usually take our daily drivers to a meeting. We can't see our cars from where the meeting is held.

Look forward to seeing you there!

Cheers
Coll

Hi Coll. Thanks for the advice re Club meetings. I suspected that might be the case. (I guess the reality is gone are the days when you could leave your shiny wheels parked at the pub safe in the knowledge she would still be there intact on your return). Cheers, S

Hi I have a lonely 77XC Coupe 5.8GS. I think overall good original condition, however requires major mechanical overhall (engine, transmission) - some day.
