Hi Guy's & Girls I don't want to sound like an old fart, (which I am) but after looking at the members on the forum I have been wondering what has happened to all the old original members. I know some fell out for personel reasons and some left because of differences with other members but I do know that these people founded this forum. I remember well when we would drive interstate to go to a BBQ or dinner with friends and talk cars. Some of us have been through hard times and as friends we always offered help and support. I could mention many names that have dissappeared for what ever reason, but I feel that as a forum of people who love cars I should remind all members this is a social forum. We all love cars (FORDS) I remember the pizza nights in Dickson (ACT) just to get togeather, the banter on the cruises when we took the wifes and kids (sorry Cro, Aaron, Mic etc) We all had good times. It's not just about how fast your car is or how quick you can get up the mountain but the friendship and the love of fine machines. (whatever make) So I,am calling all old Farts & young ladies (they know who they are) to get togeather and if they no longer post ask their friends to let them know. People come and go, friends and good cars don't Regards Gary (creepy)

Hi Guy's The lads at FORDMODS.com are organizing a overnight Snowies trip at the end of October or early November. This is a joint cruise between NSW, Victoria etc. If we don't organize one ourselves maybe we can team up. Jump on their forum for details. Regards Gary

I feel sorry for you. I know exactly how you feel, I'v been off work since the 11th December and won't go back till the end of March. (at the earliest) I also can't drive, it sucks big time. I,m sick of dvd's and day time TV, as hiddeous said at least we have the net to playwith. All the best. Good luck Creepy

I remember The romantic spa's, the quite mood music at the Yamba pub. and who could forget the cruise leader, Lumpy and his pimp mobile. Let's do it again. Creepy

Hi Ya-all Is any of the local boy's from the highlands going to the Bong-Bong races tomorrow. If you are see ya there. Creepy

The colour is "Sandstorm" it's a 75th anniversary colour, both on the Falcon in Aus and the Mustang in the States. Thanks for all the kind comments and yes I would like to ditch the tail lights (on the car when I purchased it) but I have a problem, the wife likes them, I will work on that. The car is lowered and sits on 20" Verde Black Label Kaos in Gloss Black with a machined lip. I find the Tickford motor quite responsive, (not like a T of course) but I guess I'm getting a little older. And yes I will try and catch up with you guys on a cruise soon, that's if you don't mind a vintage vehicle tagging along Regards Gary (Creepy)

I'm not having much luck with the pics Hope these work Gary

Hi All Here's some pics of the new beast, I know it's not a "T" but at least it's a Tickford. [ http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/2441/1141465s.jpg' alt='1141465s.jpg'> I Hope you approve Regards

Congrats Mate Bloody great looking car. I looked at buying a AUXR8 (black of course) about a month ago but settled on the Ghia, (must be an age thing) it's only a six, but at least it's a Tickford It's had a few mods (more to come) So as Mick has suggested mod, mod, mod. Gary p.s. a few pics of the beast.

Bring back the "Coffs" cruise. Maybe even Lumpy would lead.

Hi All This idea is from the Z Forum If it's been done before I'm sure you will tell me. And keep it clean.
