    Not that difficult to do Ken. We had meeting with the Bunning's bosses (they make money from coffee/food sold), told the cops what we were up too and they happy, got Shannon's insurance involved for a few $ toward advertising the first few events and spread the word around via leaflets, face book and any other means.
    It is a no pressure/no hassle meet up to look at others bikes/cars and have a coffee and chat for two hours on a Sunday morning (9 to 11am), with most going for a ride to some pub for lunch after. Be good to see the idea spread.

    Todays Bunning's coffee morning had more than I expected turn up, thought that car race might keep a few on the couch, so here are todays pictures.

    I don't think rego is a problem if they go with 'street rod' rego, but that one yesterday is on full rego.
    Because it is built on a Mitsibitchy Triton chassis and rolling gear, it is rego as a 'rebodied' Triton so no engineer required for chassis, brakes, etc, just the engine change and a few small things. But the body? Yuck.
    Nice clubby.
