Took the 850 to Toowoomba today.
Great day with the morris minor club in attendance.
Apart from a dodgy mud map and getting lost, 60 odd minis and a few less minors, amoungst some other classics, made a great showing

i saw two hawt mg's parked up at mcdonalds goodna this morn and was wondering what was going on, but i didnt see any minis around

A fun day, beautiful weather, and I was in the brightest, greenest, Shrek Moke you ever did see.

Cheers,
Watto.

I saw your car there anthony. I only found out who you were after I had walked away (you were talking to Matt and looking at my wheels on my beige deluxe while I was talking to some old guy). I'm sure our path's will meet again and I'll introduce myself.



Damn I must've missed you watto - I didn't even see you there! I saw that moke though!

Anyway - was a good day and I enjoyed it. I got so many finger prints over my nice clean car (look with your eyes and not with your hands people!). I still enjoyed it immensley though.

Great to see so many minis turn out, and catch up with mini people old and new!

So many minis it was hard to look at all of them in detail, but I managed!

Tough life eh?

John Wagner I think

David He's having dinner with Kerry tonight ( he is an insurance accessor) John could be his Dad who owned apparently a crappy old Marina campervan that was parked in the corner

I was there sunday too. However I did not take my Convertible up as the weather in Brisbane did not look too promising on Sunday at 6am before we left home. I drove my latest Clubby which is a 75 Hairy Lime one. Which I have just fitted a new engine to and it is a converted 'Auto Block'. It has a 1360 with twin 1.5"SU and a very lumpy 649 Cam. Goes like a rocket and does not mind a drink either ! The 3.1 diff that I fitted in it make sit rev less on the Hi way too. I am having the twins properly tuned next week maybe I will get rid of it's drinking habbit.

John did own the campervan.... & approximately 40 other cars, mainly old morris utes and a few minors. All in exceptional to just plain immaculate condition!

It was John's place, he owns it. His son David doesn't. Simple.

John went to a lot of effort to put the day on, and the Toowoomba MOCQ members did a really good job of keeping it running smoothly.

Over $8000 was raised for Cystic Fibrosis and other childhood illness charities.

Was a good day!
