Hi,

Just inviting anyone interested in gathering somewhere central - West End is good - there is a nice park with a carpark nearby - just to meet others with the interest. Sedan will be reg'd next week and used as a daily driver. Got an interesting front indicator assembly replacement for the late models to replace the old white ones....fits right in with small amount of technical expertise and suits the era.
Will post pics and info after the weekend.

that's one of the Bloor family cars. they have a 3 GT's, a Sedan and a Wasp at the moment, but i think their total Bellett/Wasp number for cars they've owned over the years is now about 40-ish!!

this grey PR91 is in melbourne for a body resto ATM.
the blue PR90 they also have is in the wedding pics.

cheers.

Hi everyone we are the Capalaba people you are mentioning. The grey GT is owned by our daugher and her new husband and is called Noddy (Gt not husband). Noddy is on holidays in Melbourne for restoration. We have owned our blue GT PR90 since 1974. It has been used for several weddings over time including our brother (brother-in-law) and several Club members and now our daughter. The other GT used at wedding was also once in our family. Currently in garage etc:-
Wasp 1965 under slow restoration
1966 1/2 sedan for real enthusiasts (3 bearing engine) original condition not much to get it on the road. One owner previous to us original receipts for purchase etc.
1966 GT PR90 slowly slowly half restored. Hoping to taking this on Club event in the next couple of years.

Are interested to talk to others and meet when time permits.

Would be keen to hookup and talk cars when time permits.
Our GT is posted in "Brissy wedding" with Lindsay's green PR91 GT these 2 GT's were used for our daughter's wedding
Happy to assist with info if needed
