Ohh man, that would be so awesome.    Sad

Don't know about the visibility of the big screen in a 'reek though.

[edit] Just checked, Heddon Greta were showing it this weekend.   Sad

I could do that.

BB we have a time change...
Gates open at 6pm to let the bulk of us in. They are expecting in excess of 400 cars so do you want to meet at the old spot earlier, lets say 5:30 for 5:45

OK 5:30 it is.
At the Old Spot
Guess it will also give us some time to kick some tyres.

Will have to park behind a 4Wheel Drive so we can watch the movie between the ground & the chassis Grin

Well that was a top night out.
The movie was somewhat boring, (but that's my opinion).
There were a few hundred cars of all shapes n sizes and did we cause a stir when we drove in .....hell yeh.  Shocked
(ooops sorry... I'll have to ban myself again for that  Cry )
Got a few topical pics, but its late and we have another show tomorrow so will post a pic or two later, particularly the one of the Farrari driver taking a pic of our Reeks  Grin

I made it home with dodgy's assist this time, .......... bit of a switch ............ Iwill make it tomorrow with a push Grin

It sure was a top night out
I may weigh only 50kg but I can push start a eureka  thats parked on a spoon drain  Tongue
BB caused quite a stir on entry (showoff)  :Smiley
we found a good spot amoungst the rat rods, street machines, some classics and other kits but the paparazzi appeared out of no-where before we could turn the engines off.
huge buzz,  cant wait for the next one
hope to have my stereo by then (BB had to keep his roof up so I could hear the movie) Cool

Well dodgy had to sit outside on a chair cause her radio didn't work.
There was not much room left in mine as I'd been out all day in it & had stuff everywhere.
Had a good radio so it was fine.
As for the view, I had the roof up all night and sat up in-between the two seats to get some hight and look through the raised canopy. I sat in the drivers seat and found the roof of the car way in front, was obscuring the screen slightly.

Apart from that, it was a HOOOT.
The reaction was amazing when we entered, especially when I lowered & raised the roof and dodgy's exhaust provided the music.

As dodgy inferrs, I got there with a push, (literally). My ignition was playing up and would not start.
Its been fine since for some reason. Must be getting jelouse of the Stockade Reek.

A good event. Something different.

Certainly sounds like you guys had fun there at the movies. Had an even better reaction than normal? Must have been something to see.  lol
