Thanks mate, but it's not the car, it'll be mobilizing the troops that will be the biggest issue.

I put the offer out but my troops politely declined. They were going to go to Clare on Saturday and meet us there, but my wife is busy nesting now our renovations are almost done...so solo Dave it will be!

Just after I finally got the baby seat in the car, too!

What a great day for a run! The 3 regular cars with 2 people per car headed out of Golden Grove having Clare well in their sights.
Just over 100km run so easy on the middle aged seating of both cars and drivers.
A few photos from the day....

Great day for it gents! Sorry I missed out, did hope to make it to the starting line to say g'day, but even missed that. Took my beast for a spin up the the Big Rocking Horse and halfway to Balhanna before the li'l chap requested I chauffeur him to Semaphore...took it easy on my crappy tyres and kept the speeds down.

Next time. Definitely.

Go Redlegs, go Holdens, GO BELLETTS !! Couldn't have been a better day. Older son Brad made it out of bed and into the GT at the crazy hour, total surprise, :P Thanks for you Homies for doing the treck with us. We hunt in packs :twisted: :twisted:

Three Belletts barking down the main street of Claire :o

Did miss others though, but great to hear she's a goer Duane.

Mr. Flibbles the chief photographer.......great camera work Man 8-) 8-). Craig, you look very comfie and happy in the PR90.

We got back to Oz's to ponder over the Fiat 850 in the yard. "Is this the most uncomfortable car to sit in ever built ?" I hear Dave saying.

Looks like you guys had a good day, isn't it nice to have a convoy of Belletts down the hiway, We had a similar trip last week end, as shake down for the Nats.
The PR90 looks to be in reasonable condition, and certainly a repairer. the big question is "is it sold?"

Hey Geoff,
Car is sold and restoration planning has began. Body still has a bit of panel work to do but really is insigificant compared to my 67 GT project. Not only am I a PR90 owner but the original colour of it is my favourite, metalic grey, same as the PR91 I had 20 years ago. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
