As Henri metion it is easier if you come off the M4 otno Silverwater Rd.

But if you are coming along Parramatta Rd from Granville direction ... I don't think you can turn into the street that the Maccas driveway is on (if you can it's difficult due to traffic).

What will be the easiest is that you turn right onto St Hillier's Rd (opposite Silverwater Rd) at the big set of lights ... then drive along until the first break in the island.

Now ... not sure if it is a No U-turn ... if there is no sign there ... chuck a U-eee ad come back to the Maccas driveway that exits off before the traffic lights.

If it is a No U-turn ... you can turn into the street ... from memory the next street up has a roundabout ... turn right at this and follow this street along .... the Maccas driveway on the other side of Maccas will come up on your right before you get back up to Parramatta Rd.

Hope this helps.

Could still meet at Macca's first if you like ... and then head over there after.

Good idea, meet at Macca's then move to somewhere dry if required.

See you tomorrow,

Hahahaha ... I am known for not being able to make cruises/events due to work .... this is the first time in a long time that I have been able to make it.

I pulled into my garage about 10 mins before the hail came down...both times...this weeks and the december storm, then managed to go out and not get hailed on picking up the missus...got back in the garage...bigger bloody hail...unreal aye, not like it would make the car look any worse, got chips and scratches all over anyway. Just out giving it a clean outside and getting my boot in order...for the better part of 5 hours. Amazing things you find in your boot, an amp that I didn't know was there...though that's just me being a retard. Found lots of fine red dust, some rust bubbles...a leak or two...some more tiny rust bubbles...and a leak that i'll have to fix. Dirty as spare wheel cavity as well...but I soon sorted that out...ing bastards couldn't even give it one clean...left it dirty as since they got the car obviously. Anyway after raging at that for all those hours and trying unsuccessfully to take the towbar off...(bolts are just too damn tight for today) i'm calm again. So hey... see all you guys tomorrow mornin bright and early aye.

PS: Was trying to reply alot earlier...like as soon as I read the message but the site decided to crap out for the arvo...or my net did...so delayed response

gregsAUII · 19-01-2008, 11:58 PM

Ill be flying out from bonnyrigg so it should be a quik drive to maccas.

Hey guys. Hope it was good. Wish i was there!!
Was there a cruise after it? Im waitin for these pics lol

Frank

HLC · 20-01-2008, 08:19 PM

nah we didnt do the cruise. simon got some pics lol only 6 cars. little dissappointing. but we were fairly disorganised. hopefully next time we can get someting sorted.

poor Daniel made it to sydney, then had to leave at 2am because of some personal stuff back home :(

XPfalcon170 · 20-01-2008, 08:31 PM

if you guys are ever up for a cruise, maybe could do a joint au and e-series one? alot of the fordmods guys that cruise around here are all e-series, and can usually get a few cars coming along. Do have meets at harry's livo every now and then aswell.

Surprisingly it was a warm, bright sunny morning.
And silly me didn't wear a hat ... so I have some decent sunburn.

I haven't had a look at the photos yet ... but going on the bright sunny conditions .... they won't be as good as I am expecting.

Giev me a chance ... a little editing will recover some of the shadow casting a blown highlights.

**Uncle_Ken** · 20-01-2008, 09:29 PM

Yes I will need this pics for my audition for Australia's next top model LOL
