Hi guys,
Just talked to the guys from the AFD, they said we would need at
least 10 cars to have a site.
Good news as we only need 4 or 5 more..
There wasn't that many AU's there last year, it would to have a display
Of them.

I reckon I should be able to make it..
I would be nice to have an AU only site..
We could look into banners or a sign or something to show that it's an AU display..

There's some nice AU's in Melb and it might be worth shooting a pm to a few members..

Here's a little list of Melb cars.. (yes I know a couple have already posted..lol)
Whoosha
SirchAU
xr6jet
FOCUSonTHIS
GavL
Professor Farnsworth
Dave_Obsession
GUTLES
sikford
bartsau
Stagg
robbyj

Also, I have a few mates (not on here) with some AU's.. I'll give them a buzz..

I'll have a look through some threads for more members..

Cheers

Wow Kristo you've been busy trolling through threads I see.....

Yeah I'm up for it...will be heading down there to promote the business anyway so why not chuck the AU in there also....plus it gives me extra reason to get all the bits I've collected put into the bloody car...

Any idea of costs involved?

Haha.. Yep, I sure have..

And you're going to be busy detailing everyone's car before AFD..
It's the least you can do...


Pretty sure it's around $20 per car..

On a serious note, anybody who is looking to have their car done before AFD will need to book in soon, I'm already completely booked out until mid/late January, and every weekend before AFD is already booked!
