> Hi Graham,
>          sorry to burst your 15 seconds of fame but I got one of those
letters too! Its my understanding they sent one to one member of each club!
lucky us!!!! I passed it on to one of our newer members and he got the local
paper out to do the story on his engine and the rally.
>
> Isnt a great way to get free publicity the people who thought of this
deserve a medal!
>
> Ill be there from Friday with the Austral we are hoping to start if for
the first time in 60 years on Saturday look for us at the Bookaar banner!
>
> We've got the fuel lines in tonight (I bought new ones from my local brass
foundry only cost $26 for 1.5m of fuel line I thought that was pretty good)
and bottom water lines to the belly tank all that remains is the shorten the
other remainding water line from the pump to the cylinder so it fits and a
final clean down.
>
> We put some kero in the fuel tank to test the intergrity of the fuel line
joins and after the second pump it picked up and on the forth it was
circulating to the carbie and down to the overflow. VERY EXCITING!!!! I hope
the rest works this well
>
> If anyone is heading there on Friday or during the weekend my number is
0419145747 it would be great to catch up Friday evening for a few quite ones
or a meal.
>
> I look forward to seeing some of you there.
