John's Picnic 2004 - Page 8

 

 

I can't remember if this is driving back from Castlemaine or heading out to the Picnic on Sunday. Either way, it was perfect roadster weather for the whole weekend.
Came across this coupe as we were cruising down the freeway.
Corey was taking the snaps, I was driving. Nice work mate.
So as you can see, two-carb flatheads are clearly faster than blown small block Chevs.
Here's the magnificent Kustom Ink trade stand. I think Peddro was saying... "Discount? DISCOUNT? You'll have to talk to the manager mate, he'll be back any minute."
Hit of the event was Adrian Perri's bare metal Merc.
This was once a four door and as you can see, the metal work is there for all to see. A splash of Paul Quaife pinstriping and some clear and you're done.
Unfortunately the grille wasn't finished for this event, but I have since seen it and it looks great.
Smooooooth...
Shiny.....
