Brisbane May BBBQ

[Taz]

I might be able to get you a cheap room at the Meriton on the waterfront - tallest in Brissie and much closer than a drive from the goldy - got a mate who works there

Just looking at prices, thinking if I can swing it I might make a weekend of it and stay at the Q1 on Sat/Sun/Mon I have to get the rust done in my roof so how much that costs will determine if I'm coming up or not. I was quoted $500, but that was before the guy saw underneath the headliner

Could always have a crack at prepping it yourself to save him some time and save you some money

Make sure they actually repair it properly, by cutting out all rust and welding new plates in. If they just cut and bog it will come back after a couple of months.

Thanks Taz ... but I adore the Q1 and I really need to get the hell away for a couple of days. Plus I'm not real keen on driving around in Brissy too much. Never done any real city driving other than Surfers.

Yeah Vectose, my youngest son (he's a gearhead) said that was what needed doing. I would definitely want it done properly.

Daniel, I did wonder what I could do to save some money, but I haven't a clue about body work Always willing to have a go though

Np Xena
Already looking like a good turnout!
Hopefully 10+ fto's and a few tag along's as well
Does anybody know any work that needs to be done on their cars while present?
Full garage of tools and air compressor available - take advantage while you can

[BorepYano]

Xena, if you're going to do the roof rust after the BBQ then you can have a yarn with ppl there to get some more idea, or if anyone's roof lining is easy to take off then maybe even have a look.

Taz, I might swing by if I don't forget, won't be in the FTO though, unless someone can tow it there and back lol

[SEEMYFTO]

I've found some rust spots on the exterior of my roof...I'm pretty keen to do it myself it it's an easy fix...

if you see it on the exterior, then that means it's rusted through, cos it's the glue on the inside that causes the rust, you can get it cut out and welded though.

I'll try bring both of mine and try and get Kylie to come

Might have to organize meat and drinks now
5-10 bucks a head would cover a mad feast for everyone
should be 10-15 odd people coming by the looks!
Luckily i have room in the driveway for 6 cars, and free parking right across the road for 50+ cars

Get your lists together now guys of what you want/need to do. Start ordering parts if needed. Might plan a cruise during the afternoon too which will lead to a photoshoot as we have some decent numbers now.
Theres the usual Mt Gravatt lookout which weve done in the past. Also out by Brisbane port theres some pretty sick spots. Anywhere else anybody can think of? Or cruise routes?

[Taz]

Looks like we might have Johns mate in his lancer coming round and doing an FTO complete brake upgrade including all hubs, arms, booster, lines and wheels
Looking to be a top day already - cant wait !
