Mould move day.

As we have the club display at the National Motor Museum it was suggested that a mould on a rotisserie would add to the interest.  This combined with getting all the moulds in one place in a container or two, meant it was time for a move.  So last Saturday Immanuel, Dean, Chris and Scott headed to Kapunda to load up the car trailer kindly lent by Immanuel.  We managed to squeeze the complete MK7 mould and frame on plus lots of bits from the various Mk4, Nagari and Ikara moulds/parts as well.  A slow trip back via Amanda's shop for lunch (Cheers!) and then the moulds were unloaded and washed off at Birdwood.  A possum had been resident in the Mk7 mould and left it to the last minute to vacate their tenancy which gave us all a start as it raced past in the shed at Kapunda.  Anyway the wash team now aided by John H and Immanuel's kids had the moulds looking and smelling fine.  
 
The Rotisserie was assembled in the display along with a Mk4 part and mould. It all looks pretty impressive alongside the shiny Bollies in the club display.  Next cars in are a MK5 and the NEW Nagari.  The club display will be there till the end of August and the New Nagari hopefully a bit longer in the Museum.
 
A big Thanks to all involved and make sure you get up there to have a look!
 
Perhaps a Club run to the Mill is in order?
