Nice... you guys don't pay extra for those plates do you? We get stung for everything. Plates like that would cost you $400 a year in NSW.

In QLD they would be $500 one payment only. Looks great.
I will someday think of something clever to say.

Yeah they are a one off $495 payment for the 7 letter and about another 80-100 for the 9 letter that has to have the polycarbonate plates.

I ended up ordering new rockers and shafts from the states and now fitted, after doing the lifters it was still a bit noisy, but all sweet now.

Also have fitted a remote brake booster under the fender, made up a air vent for the drivers side that was missing and blocked off by a plate.
Used a vent i had floating around from either a mustang or Falcon ? and an old pvc downpipe leaf catcher for the intake. :lol:

And bodged up a twin system made from mustang 2" mufflers and tailpipes that Pete (exhausted) gave me some time back and added some chrome droopies out the back, she sounds great and is a real cruiser now.

Only had one 4 hour cruise stopping for lunch, but gets out at least twice a week for school runs and auto parts shopping.
Every organised cruise and show and shines i have wanted to go to we have had stuff already going on those weekends, just heard of another cruise this weekend from Carouse shopping centre to somewhere? Ill look that up tonight and see how that pans out.

Just looked that up its the 10th Nov.
Found the one mentioned to me it is a night cruise http://autolifeperth.com/events/event/u ... ht-cruise/
Autolife website seem to be the best for coming events, there is also Chrome bumper weekend in Collie, but will take 2 hours to get there.
