I know i'd been bangin' on about getting a great club line up, but not even I realised what was about to unfold in the next few hours.
Andy was on his way with his Panel, trailer and brother Chris to go down south to pick up Chris' chassis on Sunday and had arranged to stop over at Micks, so it made perfect sense for him to set off early and come to mine to join in with the cruise, having come all the way down from the North East. So about three the kettle was on and we waited for the sound of more V8's. Not long to wait as Nicky pulled up in his flat head powered A, followed by Dranny and Joe in the pop, (nice white letters there mate )
Closely followed by Joe in his Pop and Jeff (who'd travelled all the way from next door ;D) in his newly aquired Stag. Just as we were about to go, John Acky rumbled up in his A, ive seen that car parked up so many times, but haulin ass down the road its just killer!
So off we set to pick up Mrs. Round in his Pop and as his white 100E was spare, Robbo jumped in that as 'The Hoodlum'' had an altercation with an MOT and was out of commision, so the NHRC 'Spare' came in useful.
Robbo, cheered up again in the 'Pool Car'...
We lost Andy, Chris, trailer and Joe, so we pulled over, news coming in was that Joes Pop had snapped the clutch cable, now no one can say the NHRC aren't prepared, with the loan car already out, the NHRC support Panel Van and trailer were deployed and the Pop was loaded.
We waited for them, there was no way we were leaving without them, we set out together, and we were going to get there together - under own steam or not!
....and off again to meet Jeff who'd gone on ahead to meet up with Deano in his model Y and Grum anmd Andy in his T to let them know what was happening, this was turning into the best cruise into Leeds i've ever had, proud doesn't come close! Grum was due to come to mine, unfortunately brother Andy was planting some flowers or something....Puff!
Pulling into Leeds it began to dawn on me just how many cars we had there or coming, Yeehaaa, what a turn out! ;D What a line up!
.....then Joe arrived.... Piggy back! Bleedin Trailer Queen. ;D
''John I just can't get this Tea Pot thing right mate, is it right foot out and twist that hip? and I seem to keep gettin this droopy spout, i need to find something else to do, this is no good''
And with his new toy cleaned and polised, Mick and Helen arrived in the FORD, yes that's FORD Panel to add to the NHRC Diesel Division, gettin good MPG, its a real sweet addition to the toy box and the club, and i'ts arrow streight .
Andy - ''i'd better turn mi van n trailer rooond man''
Chris - ''Naah not yet man, they're all watchin n ya drivins shite man''
...an then Fletch arrived to cap it off-brilliant, nice to see you mate, that means we had cars from the North East and Hull, Mega!
So a bit of indulgence, a pic of all the cars I think is in order don't you?.....
Bring out the Loaner! The NHRC pool car!! ;D
The NHRC support Panel... (Why aye, itsacanneybagachuda ;D )
Trailer Queen!....it'd be a shame if Joe got stuck with that title wouldn't it, no boys really, have a heart, no don't! ;D
.....''so with a diesel i'm gettin......'' ''zzzzzzzzzzzzzz sorry ahem, you were saying?''! ;D
''I don't know I just love head buttin cars, it's better than doin the tea pot, I can't do that Tea Pot thing so i've taken this up, try it its ace!'' THUD
I just love the colour of Andy's pop more the more I see it, it's just so fresh.
However i'm missing the pic of Andy's V8 Mk1 Escort that was there aswell, the second NHRC back up car! ;D
Where did Crocodile Dundee come from? ;D
''Rate na tha sees, its gotta be Fowad all't way lads''
''Did I ere you right there boy, ford? I hate them I do, it's Chevys you need, i'll hit u with mi leek an knock some sence into you boy''
Jeff a word of advice mate, just nod, say ''oh yeah'' and laugh, none of us understand em! ;D If you just say cannybagachuuda they start laughing! Dunno why! ;D
''you see ere Dean, this car I bought's got two four pots stuck together look''
Caption Competition,- 'Now you see Karen, cos I welded the exhaust to the floor of Robbos car it's integrity and strength has been extreemly well improved, did we charge him for that?'' ;D
Havin' a diesel has it's benefits ya see. Let me explain. With a Blown motor it just drinks gas and empties your wallet, but with mi new diesel I can afford to Supersize for a quid extra! Happy Days! ;D
Spotted this thought it looked ace, so took a pic.....
''Right lads i'm just gonna slip this new cable in can anyone slip me a length through so I can grab it?!!'' ;D
'' Nah Russ don't take a picture of that, I had to do summink abart mi Pubes, i'm gettin old ya know they're goin grey mate, so I had a quick rinse job, nothhin' wrong wi that is there lads eh?''
So a few more that cought my eye.....
Ray's Nomad always looks sooooo clean.
Did I mention....Side Pipes, they're coming back ya know!!
Get a look at this next time out, it's absolutely stunning.
....and if i'm right, good o'l Mrs Round is the current holder of the 'Gay car club' card, suits you sir!
And that Boy's is pretty much it, it was a belter, one of the best and I loved every minute, good mates, loads of laughs and memories made, heres to the next NHRC mass gathering, so can we his 20 cars for Sheffield? We managed 17 tonight, Big D's Sedan is parked up as he's on his hols, we may get his Dad out in his Pop, that makes 19, anyone got a spare tucked away!! ;D Was great to see so many shirts and Jackets, what a brilliant night!
Bed time, hope you like em. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
NB: Brekkie Run next Sunday lads.
Oh and I forgot to tell ya'all, not only has Dranny turned his tyres round and whited the letters, theres now an Axle Light!! It;s the only way forward! ;D
