Hey Cameron,

Did you buy your imagine injection direct from Bob in the States
or did you go through the distributor down south in Oz.

Any dramas or insights we should know about in getting them sent over here.

Regards

Nick

Nick,

I did go direct through Bob. Simple to deal with and delivered as promised 100% on time.

I have no idea if there is an Oz distributor?

No drama's, shipped FedEx, pay your import duty.. done..

Looking forward to getting the car, sitting at the kitchen table with the manifold in front of me, steering with a plate and making those brooom brooom noise, isn't cutting it...

The kids once thought I was strange... now there is no doubt

Bernie,

car is due in OZ end of August. Engine is here, Ford Motor Sports 347, Z Heads... blah blah blah. Good for 450HP on a Holley.

Manifold is Imagine, see the pics in my Gallery... cool...

Management by Mr MoTec

Plan is, on the road registered w/o Sept 20th... fingers crossed..

That gives me a few days to become one with the machine before the Nationals

Yikes

Cameron

Well good luck there Cameron.

Hope to see it up at the Nationals.



At this stage I should be driving my Cobra up there a day or two earlier. So look forward to your shake down there.

Cheers

Bernie

Are you still going to visit without a car?
If I can fly over from Alice Springs then surely you can get there?

Cameron,
Congrats on your new SPF. Too bad the container missed a transfer and you won't get the car on time, but sometimes sh*t happens. Good colour choice, silver, no stripes, just like mine. What chassis number is your car? Are we over car #2000 already?
Hope there are no more delays before you get the car.
Enjoy!!!

Andrés

Boxhead,

It would have been a stretch to get there to drive... leave a meeting in Shanghai, to catch an overnight to Sydney, transfer to Canberra, a pick up to Gouburn to drive, same day.....

If I can't get behind the wheel, I would be arriving just in time to sleep...

have fun and I will plan to be there in 05'

Andrés

thanks, I like the colour too (obviously!). I don't have a build number yet. I will post it as soon as I know.

Cameron

Whoa nearly 2000 SPF.



Cameron, bad luck there with the Cobra arriving late. Guess it will give you more time to sort it out.

I'm heading up to Goulbourn, but will not be participating, just having a look.

Have made a few changes and will have a day at Mac Park in SA or wait for a Wednesday session at Calder Park Raceway. Guess it makes more sense as I will have a lot of backup/support at Calder.

Wakefield Park is just too far to go for two hot laps!!

Cheers

Bernie
