Yep was good to have a drive.

Great idea, we are going to the GT Nationals in Adelaide, why don't you give him a ring and ask if he will hand you the keys?! ;)

i think the kho number plates were re-released at some stage. i have seen many xy's with kho, it seems to be more than a coincidence that so many of them have the same prefix
the k was used around that time
the ho part, i would think are the ideal second and third letters

My only critisicism, if you can call it that, is that there's just too many good cars to look at. Its too easy to miss something good.

Most of the cars are this worthy

And that is why i don't like to show off in front of big crowds or any crowds for that matter. It's a trust worthy mates only crowd away from civilisation type thing maybe. But then again, 19" tyres are damn expensive.

I'll just rev my V8. That should be enough.hehehe

Correct you are XR-ENVI.

When will the f*&#wit's learn that there is a time and a place for this kind of activity.

I'm really pi$$ed at this kind of behaviour at event's.

My apologie's for evading the swear filter Mod's but it had to be said.

Exactly, only the weak give in to such stupid demand's.

And in doing so, they damage the future of such event's.

Ok let's get back on topic and keep those pics comin'. NO HOON PICS.

they tried to egg my father on at the easternats when he was making his way onto the track to go cruising - he said to the guy "you paying for the paint? take your push bike home son" I was in the passenger seat and the guy heard him! dad was justified as we were rolling up beside the garages and were flanked by people and had officials at a spacing of 5 feet sooooooo not the place to rip a burnout, not to mention the cars got a full custom fibreglass skirt kit on it and is painted in pearl : yea we want to wreck the paintwork

Did anyone get pictures of my white and green 65 fastback mustang. You can see a glimpse of it here.

Id also like to congratulate MAD MAL, his car has been stuck in the back of workshops for so many years now, it was great to see it out again.
Its off to the body shop, cant wait to see the finished product.

Cheers Liam

Sorry i didn't get any pics of your stang profi.

I remember a few years ago sitting in Hungry Jack's Nth Geelong at
my son's Birthday Party and i saw MADMAL go past then not long after that
it was featured in FORD Performance Mag i think it was. Sorry if i got the mag name wrong.

Please feel free to post some of your own pics of your Mustang here mate.

I for one would like to see it and i'm sure many other's would be appreciative also.

Adam.

There the only shots i took at the show, heres about the only decent pic i have. We might have to take her down to Williamstown and take some nice pictures.

I think it was FORD Performance Mag that Mal's car was in. He nearly didnt make it the bonnet hole was cut out on saturday night. The back seats and interior weren't bolted in. The engine was fired up for the first time last weekend.

This isn't a pic from the show, hope no one minds
