sidewaysickness Posted May 16, 2018 Author Share Posted May 16, 2018 I will be there with my camera, is there any point on the road where the car is airborne? Or at least lifting the inside wheel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 OK- its been a while since us mighty fine collection of nelson oldschoolers have had a meet. Quite a while. It would be really nice to catch up with you all. So I've just spotted that there is going to be a classic car show at Mapua on Sunday the 25th of November. How about we meet up somewhere before hand and drive in convoy to the show. Figuring that most of us are in Nelson so perhaps we could meet in Upper Moutere? I think we need to roll up to the show around 10am to park up. Any ideas or suggestions are welcome on this idea- remember it can be anyone on oldschool that organises or helps create an event If you are new to Nelson area and have recently joined oldschool, have just read this update then please say hi! Come along and add to our numbers on the day. Roll call time... @sidewaysickness @footey @ThePog @AttySlungGatty @Slacker_Sam. @Willdat? @ynot @Paulluap @2sik25 @Impish1 @GMH63 @avengertiger @nzvohc @scooters @moparmuppet @Gozza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxted Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 I’ll still be in Dutch land hopefully back for Xmas so unfortunately will miss this one, anything happening in Jan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 We can certainly make something happen in Jan. Ideas here on a postcard. Would be good to do a run somewhere, maybe with a camp over night. Make most of long summer evenings. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoeddynz Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Just quipping in here to say that it looks like the weather might be a bit shit on Sunday. I am a fair weather person so wont come along if its yucky. Jobs to do in workshop instead. @ynot you too better be careful if its raining or you'll be likely to come back to what was a Fiat but is now a pile of oxide.... Anyway- if sunny I'm there!!!

avengertiger Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 sorry alex for late reply i was back in the emerald isle for 3 weeks just home hope the show went well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Hi Dave- yeah the show was really good. We met Gary there and he said you'd gone back to Ireland for a catch up. Ideas please Nelson oldschool folk- shall we do a bbq/beach meet somewhere? I'm now figuring that our next meet would have to be after the new years fiasco anyway so a bit of time to think up some ideas. Perhaps you know a good circuit and cafe stop we could do. Or a visit to some museum or other place of interest. Or will there be enough interest to have a simple meet somewhere just for a bbq and catchup.

Gozza Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 It’s about time we went out for a couple of hydraulic sandwiches isn’t it? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 It is certainly about time. However- I will spend any spare time working on my Imp for now- then can look forward to going for a drive somewhere, get something to eat and do the default 'look back at my classic parked in the sunshine' glance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 OK oldschoolers of Nelson area - I have just been nudged by Dylan @ThePog and reminded of the time. Yeah its about time we organise a meetup, have a bbq and discuss the finer points of old car ownership etc It could be the usual rabbit island meet because its easy, close enough to most, has bbqs and ample parking. No date will suit all but how about we aim for the week Sunday - that will be Sunday the 13th, say at 12pm If anyone here knows someone who fits the bill for the oldschool way ie - does not take themselves too seriously then bring them along. Calling @ynot @Willdat? @Gozza @Slacker_Sam. @avengertiger @moparmuppet @CPR Sierra @maxted @Sanfiddy @2sik25 @scooters @Paulluap @AttySlungGatty @dirty_leppa @JasonO @footey @nzvohc @GMH63 @mattj 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
