Hhhmmm, I have two engagement parties on that night. I think I am spreading myself a little thin on the social scene these days .
I might have to keep my diary under wraps, I am sure someone is checking it and planning everything so it clashes with other events
BTW: clutch has been ordered and the rolla will be back on the road ASAP Ready for Booner Nats! Go to whoa will be mine
I like this ACT only section, much more room to move.

Shano. So you found out...and they said you weren't bright enough to work it out!
Good news on the clutch mate. Just intime for the wet weather practice laps of Braddon.
The diff went to Rob at Diff Dr on Monday. He said it is definately bent due to the heat from welding on the brackets. He is so busy he'll take two weeks to repair/straighten and fit the 3.7. Just intime to have the turbo installed inn Tweety and ready to go!
Cheers
Mitch

Ah ha ! I could not let that one go through to the keeper without an off-topic retort ! Nice one mate, you can hide but you can't run.....
Anyhow, don't forget to ask that other Phil at your Christmas function how the welding job went - with any luck he will have a smile from ear to ear, hopefully not from rear to ear !
And while I am interloping here, Mitch: you need to think about that sign off you are using mate...."Mitch & Phil" gives the wrong message I reckon, a bit like Trevor and Terrance from South Park or those two guys from 'The Block' TV reno reality show....
And seriously: Merry Christmas to all CCG members, from a guy in the land before time, WA.....wait awhile, wackers anonymous, etc etc......
Cheers all,
Mitch.
(Free bump as well - this is a merry christmas !)

I reckon they are more like "Bert and Ernie" or even "Bill and Ben the Celica Men" or "Adam and Steve" (not Eve)
Just kidding.
The 11th I will be in Beechworth Vic. The rolla will be back on the road ASAP though, the new clutch has arrived! My slaves come around tomorrow to help do the job (they will get under the car and be crushed by the gearbox hehehe).

Hey hey hey....what this...some Christmas Cheer and good will to all....not from our ratbag mates in the CCG. Sounds like its not the silly season but Open Season ya flogs! Right back at ya...Ha!
I think Mitch T, Shano and Phil L are just sounding scared that I almost have the 3TGT running and they are petrified that after I blind them with the BRIGHT YELLOW of Tweety that they wont be able to pass me now, even tho there cars have 10 times the grunt. I think the answer is Polaroid Sunnies fellas!
Now on the Drinks - we have been guzzumped at 3 locations now due to the usual overbooking of pubs and clubs. So we are still looking for a fair venue for a Christmas get together.
Will email out over the weekend to give some notice but at this stage its looking mor like a Christmas Beer O'Clock at a pub on the 11th.
Merry Christmas to all!
Mitch & Phil
(I like the way it sounds so there)

All Yata Fans:
- Christmas Drinks
Everyone is invited to drop in for our last chatfest for 2004. Saturday 7pm in the general bar area (Band on at 10pm for the Ragers!) at: LANYON VALLEY RUGBY UNION CLUB - Heidelberg St Conder (02) 6200 8400 (Internet www.tuggers.com.au)
- Of course all welcome to come and meet the Group.
(BTW – Come along and hear me brag about the current 996 Porsche Carrera (only worth $225,000) that I got to take my daughter in to her YR 10 Formal! Hell what a car………almost as good as Tweety!)
- GT8 Celica Article in SPEED Magazine
You must buy or at least read the excellent article on page 52 of SPEED magazine. Our Canberran Justin Simpson’s GT8 Celica is featured with a most impressive and complimentary story on the build of the beast. This machine really has to be seen to appreciate the quality of the twin turboed Lexus V8 stuffed into a GT4….then turned rear wheel drive!
- We also noticed that Martin Donnan (HOT4s Tech Guru fame) owns a red RA28 that he is building, with monthly updates in HOT4s on the rebuild.
- January 2005 CCG Event
In January (15/16th) we are cruising down the coast to enjoy the great summer weather. So keep an eye out for more details soon.
If we don’t catch you for a beer on Saturday night (11th) then have a very Merry Christmas and we will catch up in 2005!
Cheers
Mitch & Phil

Gidday all
Just thought I would drop a line from PNG and apologise for not getting to the xmas show. Remember to have a drink for me.
Old toyotas are a little rare here. There is one red ta22 that you have to stay clear of or the rust will splat on you. The car has front/rear spoiler and looks it like poo. Will try and get a shot of it.
Seen a few later celicas including 2 GT4s. There is not much of anything in the way of cars here - most are grey imports from Japan, and really none of them are performance cars. I was not aware of the HUGE range of shit cars built in Japan.
Until Monday I had a 2 year old long wheel base Camry with a 2.2 motor. It had all of the goodies but was real gutless. On Monday I took delivery of a new Outlander - Japanese version. It seems to go ok and does not disappear down the many pot holes like the Camry. Should keep me happy for the next 2 years
Now on the plus side I have only seem one Dunnydoor in the past 7 weeks, and only 3 EB or so Falcons.
On the negative side my son has been taking my TA23 for a ride every few weeks - so watch out.
I am back for xmas so will try and catch up with a few of you.
Craig

Hi Craig
I cant imagine how much you will be hanging out for a fang in the 23 by Christmas! Dont forget to wash up well before you return so you dont get sprung for illegally importing rust into OZ!
Will catch up then. Cheers. Mitch
