This morning after we had our obligatory Coffee & Mc Muffin and packing up & fueling up (with the Crupi's all taking up the petrol pumps! :wink: :lol: ) we headed off to the Cowra War & Railway Museum (Pete's a GUNZLE :wtf: ) .. had a great time there finding all sorts of stuff (even a Namagera Red EJ wagon!) if you're ever in the area check it out ... but make sure you have a lot of hours to spend.

Had a ball catching up with everyone (even Brett :clap: ) ....

Pete I don't suppose that gent you are shaking hands with name is Dexter? He is wearing navy cams for pants. I served on a warship with him. Dexter was his nickname. Looks familiar

We had a great time at Cowra Nats. Fi and I have only just got home to Brisbane after visiting family and a few more detours. My new FB went well overall, but a few things need to be adressed including a change of diff ratio (336 too high for me!) and some fiddling with floor shift nuts and bolts etc. Thanks to all you hard working N.S.W. fellows and thank God for the weather over the weekend. We went with Scotty and Pete to that museum outside Cowra and it had some great stuff. I didn't know what to look at or which way to run. I was like a kid in a wrecking yard so to speak! Again, well done guys.

Bit late with my post but thanks heaps to the NSW club for organising a great nats - I haven't been for a few years but Cowra was great. It was a great weekend and it was great (hmmm seem to like that word) catching up with lots of people and seeing all the FBs and EKs in the one place. Looking forward to going again next year.
