The Purvis Eureka Forum

G'day gang,

Next Sunday the 14th of Feb is the Hanging Rock Vehicle Extravaganza.   :)

Morris and I will be going this year, fires, floods and pestilence permitting, so if any others would like to join in with us you are most welcome.

We will be aiming to meet up at the entry gate at around 8:30am as usual which means we will be cruising up the highway a fair bit earlier than that so please contact me or make a post here if you'd like to join in.

This is a mega huge expo of almost every type of vehicle known to man so it is well worth the effort to get there.

Details as per their website here --> www.picnicathangingrock.com.au (http://www.picnicathangingrock.com.au) and if you go to the pictures of last years event you will see Stuart and his Reek on photo number 8 of 34.


So call me,call me now!

an 15 the year before that. ;) what a photographer's dream to be at an event like this hope you guy's have a ball an the weather is fantastic.. ;)

Paul - I will be there!!!

Same as last year back gate 8.30, and I will be coming down the highway this time, not a 2 hour trip backroads last year trying to dodge bushfires!

See you then.

Stuart

My car is also in the photos under 2008 picnic - photo 15 (the front this time)

Stu

thats the one i saw very cool front an rear from two separate meet's ..maybe this year a side shot. ;D

If all goes well ill be there, just depends on one of my mate, being valentines day and young he might be busy. Only 6 more unlicensed days in me, its such an inconvenience... to anyone out there that likes to speed... SLOW DOWN its not worth it.
If i make it down there ill be running around like a headless chook trying to find the eurekas!!!

I have my fingers crossed, but not my hopes up.

i've always liked that phrase the thing is how would you find them if you are headless.. ??? ::) :P

Trev,

There will be four of us there and they're not all red :o so we shouldn't be that hard to find.  O0

It's a big place though so if you have trouble just give me a call - 0418 307 973.

G'day gang,

Well Stuart, Morris, Tim and I made it to this one so here's a link to the start of the fun
http://www.carsofaustralia.com.au/events_gallery.php?details=492&vp=14 (http://www.carsofaustralia.com.au/events_gallery.php?details=492&vp=14)
and it continues onto page 15 with several more and another one on page 16.

These photos were taken by someone else (mine turned out crap) and his website is www.carsofaustralia.com.au (http://www.carsofaustralia.com.au) which has bucketloads of car pics from shows all over the countryside if you've got the time to cruise through them all.

Also, a few of us attended the MotorVateMelbourne display and ANDRA rally to try to get a drag racing track in Melbourne last Saturday where we also got to meet up with Trev and here's some pics;

cheers boys :)

nice is selling us short we are reeking fantastic.. ;D

Great photos!! Must make this show one day. 

 ;D

No that wasnt Trevors (Red) reek at Hanging Rock, it was mine Stufarny's.

Did the guy buy Morris's Reek? Or was he Tyre kickin like we said!

Stu

 

Ohh, what was the price Morris? Or don't you want to disclose?

Hi Cyco, This guy came up asking what the cars were worth, I told him I would walk home if he gave me 20k cash thinking that would get rid of him.
He looked and ask questions for 30 minutes then swapped phone Nos. 1 hour later he brought his brother back for a look. I think he just takes his time kicking tyres.

if he takes it he takes it if not you have a reek in your garage still, either way it will be good! dont stress too much about it morris  ;)

Ah, I see. Fair enough. Sounds like the guy was half interested though.

are you considering a trade morris on your reek ... :)

Hi Dave, I wasnt realy even considering getting rid of the car, but if I did, it would have to be for money as I already have to many toys.

hey morris ...
toy's are always a regretfull sale as you know but  projects are fun to ...  ;)  ;)

Hi Morris,
             I said something similar to an older bloke at a car show I had my reek at in Darling Harbour in '95. I'd just spent 2 full days putting every panel back on the car after a full respray. It looked magnificent. I drove it to the show that morning, dusted it carefully, put the barrier around it and this guys' asking me how much I wanted for it.

At that stage it owed me a total of 25 including the cost of the car so I blurted out 35 gorillas. He pulled out his cheque book and started writing. Noooo! Four years of work and I hadn't had enough time driving it! Gee's I'm glad I didn't sell. It's a major part of my soul now...

     Simon

now that would be regretfull sale .. ;)
