hey all. just a heads up the Steve is organising a garage crawl day for late Sept/early Oct. if u've never heard of this kind of thing or been to one before, it's basically a day where we meet at someone's place, look thru their garage, have a chat, then move onto the next place and do it all again. Steve hopes to have 4 or 5 places to visit, all Bellett related of course, including a stop at 2 places with multiple cars and things to look at. we'll also be putting on a bbq at the final stop that will have plenty to look at and keep everyone talking. i'll keep u informed when a date is set. cheers.

i like the idea of that. just a bit far for me to travel but we could arrange one of our own closer to home

how about it boys?

trip about SA metro checking out everyones collection


OZ

Yeah, good idea!
We do that in Rye Park, Gary Carter comes to my place, then I go to his.
Best part is, there keeps being new Isuzus to look at!

I'd like to be there, PR91!
Have fun,
Matt.

love to do it here (SA) sometime!

Top idea dudes !?!

Stop by GTtoo's first though, stay all day and work out what the !@%$ is wrong with the Blue Beastie. Hahahah. Plenty of lubrication and other good stuff supplied, also food, bbq etc......nothing spared !!

Seriously, last stop maybe.

Qld should get involved in one of these also, or maybe we should get a cheap flight to Melboure or Adelaide and join in, and then we could have one here and invite ther Mexicans and Crow Eaters to Banana Landfor a week end Please note Bananas here $13 + kg.

i reckon u need to come down for the day Geoff. one stop has about 11 Belletts and the finish has the same but there's some other makes with the isuzus... as well as a motorbike or 2!

Make a day and will see if suits

GTtoo, id be happy to start at yours and lend a hand, sure a few others would too!

My shed is available -

ok the date is set for Sunday Oct 9. yes we know this is also Bathurst race day, but it's the best for those involved while remembering that tha nationals are only 2 weeks later. anyway we all know the whole V8 supercar thing is as boring as watching your lawn grow these days so a Bellett day is much better! the 'garages' will be located fairly close to one another to minimise travelling time and there'll be a bbq at the finish. in fact it'll be the infamous Bellett-bq... and yes we'll have a TV on there as well so we can all relax, enjoy our cars and watch the race.

i agree'' BELLETT BEATS BATHURST'' good luck and have a great day wish i was there regards davo

oh and also this is an official BCCV event so please direct any queries including start time and location, where we are going, what we'll do and where we will finish to myself. for privacy reasons i won't be advertising any address on the forum of places we'll visit as most are either members homes or places of business and i know all here can understand why this is. thanks and hope to see all the BCCV members out in force with their cars!

you bet davo. only thing better is a Bellett AT Bathurst tho! hopefully next year mate...

i wll be nailed to the telly next year to watch you carve those other cars up cheers again davo

hoping for a run in it at the Easter event davo.... if they run the event that is!
loooooooonnnnnnnnggggggg story....

anyway, topic titled now editted with the crawl date.
cheers.

brett ,,,,,,,bathurst not boring ,,,,,watching cars go round ,,,drinking 18 stubbies ,,have barbaque ,,,watching fords win ,,,,

yep rod... GO THE FORD'S!

well guys and girls from other states... hold your heads high and enjoy your Bellett-based events coz we've had to cancel the 'garage crawl' that was planned in Melbourne for Oct 9 due to a lack of interest... yes u read it write... CANCELLED! to say that Steve and myself are very disappointed with the majority of the 'enthusiasts' down here is a huge understatement... the only people that we're attending were the 4 whose places we were to visit and we all see each other regularly anyway so we were left with no choice but the one we've taken. adding to the disappointment is we also see the other states getting great involvement in events by the people there and we once had the same... rest assured tho that Steve and myself are discussing ways to get things on the right track again soon!

Bit of a bummer there there Brett, as if it was not for a active club that we are involved in our cars would not get out. Most of us up here are in the classic japanese car club it only started 20 months ago and now has over 40 members 1/3 of these are belletts. This weekend of the 9th was a not a good one for us but as Geoff said it sounded like it would be worth a trip down there.
