    Hey Darren, how long before the 1st of July (which is the official date for the meet at Dalhousie) do you plan on leaving home? I've got the whole week prior to it off, and have to account for the drive to Birdsville and across the desert.

    That's a good question Winnie, thinking about it now mate it will be 3 good days in the car to Birdsville. Then 1/2 day in Birdsville before heading out. 3 days to cross, day at Dalhousie to get to mt dare for fuel and Meetup. 7 days mate.
    Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!! ....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    There are some public liability issues if we call it the national meetup of the forum and this also rules ab out of the organising group. This trip must be seen as a group of mates hooking up for a great trip together.

    Epic.


    Edit*******



    well after a fair bit of thinking and thought, giving consideration to all the responses to date regarding the date.....

    i call meet at dalhousie springs, tuesday 1st july 2014

    see you there

    The timing could not be any worse for this trip. We are moving the business to Yarra Glen around this time but we've had this booked for about 2 years now!!!

    Always the way!
