confused now, most going on wed or thursday ??
I have to fix the Sports headlights if i go. One high beam light is showing yellow and aiming is bad. Fixed the aiming.... the yellow is indeed yellow. Has a yellow Halogen in it !
Our house slab just went down, have to be onsite this week for inspection.. hence not being able to go to Nats.

If any one comes up with any road trip photos of their cars making a pit stop in front of pubs, fish and chip shops, beaches, petrol stop etc, etc can they post them up. I am looking for material I can use in paintings and various other types of artworks over the next several years. Doesn't need to be a bellett , can be any classic car.

Looks like a little convoy headin to the boat. :D So nice to see.
We're in the motel waiting, so we will see you off the boat, 6am!

Yesterday had a great walk in the Cradle Mountain Nat Park, 5 hours around lakes and up mountains. As we came back to the visitors centre, Rhys says, "Theres a Bellett!" Sure enough, 68 sedan I haven't seen before!
Tracy tells me I better run before it gets away from the fuel pump. I notice that my heart rate has sped up.
An orange sedan with NSW plates, then I see the OSJCC sticker. Rhys and I are pointing and admiring when the owners rock up, its the Percys! 8-)
So they're here tonight too.
See you aaaaaall in the morning for brekkie,
Cheers, Matt.

The Belletting........has started!! Woo-hoooooooo! :D :D
