Corowa 2009 -'Year of the Amphibian & Year of the Blitz 2'

[Jan Thompson]

Hi Ryan,
After seeing your post this morning I have done some investigating. The Program Producer of Classic Restos comes from NSW and was very interested in our event in March. He has commitments with the Chrysler on the Murray rally on the 14th and 15th March at Albury but would like to be apart of our event during the week. He produces DVD's for the Chrysler rally. He would like to make a 30 minute feature of our event for his show. His program on Channel 31 can be seen in Vic, NSW, SA and Qld. When the episode goes to air it will be seen 10 times within the one week. In Sydney the show is on at 8pm on Wed and 4pm on Sat. Can you give us some feedback on what you like about his show? I will then put this to the current committee for discussion.

We are having a KVE Committee Meeting and General Meeting on Sunday 28th December at Point Lonsdale. You are more than welcome to attend.

Hi Jan,
Why do I like the Classic Restos? I guess it's informal approach to showcasing the vehicles and their owners. The show has a good mix of information from the vehicle owner and footage of the vehicle itself. It's down to earth approach is welcome and easier on the eye and ear as compared to some commercial stations over production. The host isn't a himbo/bimbo type too.
In a nutshell it's easy going, like Corowa.

Thank you too for the invite to Point Lonsdale, maybe I should get away from the computer.

yeah ..like those hosts of 'top gear' ...a load of tripe that show is , and the aussie version is just as bad ...Instead of providing an informative , erudite presentation ....they play around like teenage school boys with toys ..mine's faster than your's etc ..gees grow up . And, not forgetting the time trials with some brain dead "celebrity" .

Ch 31 is for city folk... no reception in the wilds ! I think they use a 10 watt transmitter in St Kilda .

G'Day all,
Only a week out to my ETD for Corowa and Murphy has struck.
The truck I was going to use to bring down my F15 has suffered terminal engine damage. I have been trying to organise something but the best I can do is a lo-loader type trailer to drag behind a Truck.
Can anyone help on their way through?
My mobile 04 2727 6927. The more happy I am the more beer I buy!
Fingers Crossed!

Someone ought to shoot that Murphy fellow. Save us all a lot of trouble.

Hope you find a good solution. What about on the back of Tony's F60L?
