Wouldn't mind meeting up with you guys in Wollongong and coming along for the cruise. What time do you think you will be at Wollongong Maccas? Im thinking around 9.30ish.My car is stock atm but have been doing some research and looks like CV Performance can get me started on the mod addiction Sounds like fun to me!

I bring it out once or twice a month and go for a bit of a cruise my T is shockwave in colour and they look really nice parked next to eachother. will post a good pic up of the two soon.

Restored it which took about 2 years. We had it sprayed True Blue. NiceIt just had a 250 that had some head work a cam and some other bits a peices. It was 3 on the tree but we got our hands on a 4 speed (on the floor) and a LSD. We put a disk brake front end on it and lowered it all round.Sold it around 3 years ago now.. Kinda kicking my self now tooMate id say we'll be getting to the gong around 9.45 to 10pm.Hope to see you there Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/48507-night-cruise-22nd-august-2008/page/4/#findComment-720863 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RegSpec Cruise Control 1,417 Member For: 18y 3m 16d Gender: Male Location: Macksville NSW. Posted 20/08/08 10:50 AM Share Posted 20/08/08 10:50 AM Ok....so provided the weather isn't completely crap...this is the route that I had in mind .... Leave Caltex Heathcote at 9.00pm, down the old Princes Hwy to Bulli, turn right onto Appin Rd and drive to Appin, turn left at the T intersection at the end and head off down through the gorge, across the reservoir and up into Wilton. Left onto Picton Rd and follow back to Mt Ousley, down to Nth W/gong Maccas (beside the big roundabout) After leaving Maccas we come back up the coast road to Stanwell, national park to Waterfall then on to the Caltex at Heathcote (northbound) to say our goodbyes then home. Its not what you'd call a long run but at least its a chance for us to catch up and give our cars a bit of a run. Ive decided not to ask the HSV guys this time, just keeping it between us .... I did catch up with some of them at their cruise last Sunday and they were pretty keen to come for a run with us.....so what I might do is set up a night run through Jamberoo and Mac. Pass sometime in the future depending on what you guys think...will discuss with the rest of you on Fri. night ok..... So that's about it....heres hoping the weather is good on Friday Rob , can you add another to the list...my soninlaw will come along as well....(Fairmont Ghia) Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/48507-night-cruise-22nd-august-2008/page/4/#findComment-720968 Share on other sites More sharing options...
