Melbourne cai day - been and gone

[Trav]

[color=#3A6EA5ost_uid0]after putting my alarm it - that's the easy bit - bonnet and boot - don't need to put head/arms/mouth/teeth/feet is stupidly uncomfortable postitions...[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#736AFFost_uid4]Any of you Melbourne Mob fancy a trip to stunning Canberra for a bit of a get together? Don't forget the Pr0n and the Fireworx! *Huge selling points*

Early to mid May, trying to convince the Sydney members to come down on the pretext of a CAI day, but the idea just keeps growing in my head.......

Throw on the BBQ and have a bit of an Astina GT get together for those that can make it.

No excuse required, just a cruise of the Melbourne Mob to Canberra, the Sydney Siders to Canberra, and we'll have the Barbie ready..... and some great photo's, some terrific laughs and a chance for everyone to meet n greet, say g'day and point and drool at the cars.......

If only the Queenslanders weren't so far away..... *sigh*

What do you think?
Too ambitious for the newbie Kitty?

[color=#000000ost_uid0]sounds like a good idea. *If all goes well i spose i might make the trip up *AGAIN *! *

so, lets drag all u ppl down to melbourne.

pr1mo, if u want ur boot and bonnet done, come prepared with a bonnet alarm switch *( usually a little sliding pole thingy ), all the wire u need, and know which wire from ur alarm u need to hook up to, and preferably which wire from the boot to hook up to. *Although the boot one should be fairly obvious. *i think i know the wiring in my boot back to front.

[color=#000000ost_uid0]interesting.... might have to call the "CAI day" into "DIY mod day"

i was wondering if i could get that switch for the antenna done =)[/colorost_uid0]

[CityEnd]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]oh, just remembered another thing... getting the front meshed...

where can i get black medium sized mesh? i was thinking of a different style to jynX's. more like following the shape of the body, if anyone gets what i mean.... like instead of behind the bar, but in front...[/colorost_uid0]

[mrpayner]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Dan informed me that Autobarn or a similar type of place may stock the mesh you're after. I actually have to go down and check it out myself as I'd like to mesh my bar too.

[color=#000000ost_uid0]switch for antenna - no problem! *all u need is a switch. *From Jaycar/Tandy/Dick Smith *or similar. * Or Autobarn and hardware shops usually have them too.

Otherwise, i've got a few lying around that i can give u.[/colorost_uid0]
