Title: New Member Saying Hi - '65 Impala
Post by: Octane on January 19, 2013, 10:44:47 AM: Hi All,

Thought I would say a quick "hello"! :hi:

Became a member through the week. Wasn't sure if a full-size would qualify as muscle, but it sounds like you'll have me anyway ;-)

Some pics...

I am hoping to get to Castle Hill tomorrow, so perhaps I'll meet some of you there?

Yep, made it to Castle Towers. They guided me towards the Chevs and found the AMCCA gang afterwards.

Met a couple of the lads, but promptly forgot your names :sorry:

First show for me and was VERY impressed. Apparently it was down a bit on numbers from previous years, but I thoroughly enjoyed it!
