Great to catchup with everyone at the tail end of the night only if it was go very brief. Almost ran out of fuel on the way home! The united fuel stop was closed! Damn it. Also realized on the way back that I have a serious exhaust leak somewhere as the smell of fuel is uncannily stronger than normal. Thanks to the organisers.

I really enjoyed the meet up, thanks everyone!
This is a quick no-flash panorama showing the carpark and the Kebab van to the right.
As before I met and re-met some great folk and soaked up tons of succinct Liberty related advice.
Some highlights:
USDM Legacy coilovers work with AUDM Liberties and can be affordable e.g. KW Variant 2 approx US$1600.
Trutrack suspension North Melbourne are awesome but don't hold out for special treatment - they're very busy!
Bass_Straightener (Bruce) and I are considering Trutrack's $1250 Bilstein rebuild service.
Suspension mods are not essential, if your factory equipment is maintained/refurbed and not a very low height. Try honing your driving technique first... :roll:
Brainy (Brian) recommended a good exhaust workshop who did his cat-back to twins, both afford-ably and they're non-droning.
SH30RB (Simon) obsidian black(?) bonnet - is in as bad condition as mine - planning a repaint - so keep me posted re: quotes etc.
Corsair has a new Corazon grill but dang, I forgot to ask for a stickybeak.
Chaotic2050 (Kieran) car boot sale - I missed out, due to the latter:
Anyhow I had to bolt "early" to get her Ladyship home - thus looking forward to the next installment!
Edit:
If during the day - can we make it a Liberty gear carboot sale too?

might even be able to make it a bi weekly / monthly dinner thing for the Melb boys.
Anyway, Bruce and I are looking in to a few places currently for our next meet.


Weather it be for my own selfish reasons or not. Can we have it in the city I'm sure there are some nice places to eat. If that's the sorta thing ur getting at. Nice to have a table to sit at.

Great to catch up with everyone, was a good night. A citish location would be more convenient but not fussed as I don't mind driving.
