i didn't see the motor saw a few 10 inch rims, one set of clubby rims (S) i think with Dunlop semi race rubber, a few SU's around, one lonely Contessa, but yes on the whole was a bit lacking.. there were plenty of hillbillies and rednecks though! i guess events like this were how we sourced parts before ebay, gumtree and the widespread use of the intermenet.... |

all those years of skipping any uni lectures on a thursday, bacon, eggs and iced coffee at a mates place scouring the trader.. then progressing into happy hour thursday nights and usually skipping any lectures on a friday too... see a trend here? |
