Good American car show this Sunday Kilbeggan.
Some bikes as well, great roads around there.
I will be there with RV and my Cadillac.
Any Tossers around will get coffee
 
It's always a great show and the roads around there are pretty twisty all right
Ok I will book the first coffee so will you be hard found
 
Find this and you will find me,
I may bring a CBX as well

We have gs outriders for the cruise stopping the traffic at all juctions army guys one on a l
 
thanks

thanks for the cup of tea.
CBX, Caddy and Camper,
very nice toys,
hope you bought that "van" !
 
The CBX i bought a month ago for silly money due to lack of exhausts and faulty carbs, i originally came from Scandinavia showing 78000 km
I put it through an engineering process
Kawa alternater, i designed and made up a few conversion kits and blatantly stole the BMW 6 logo.
I made headlamp brackets and used R1200GS indicators.
Handlebar ends and oxford heated grips.
Full service, rebuilt the carbs and bench synced. Set tappets.
Plenty of polishing
It runs sweet as a nut.
It got great interest at the show i am glad i brought it.
I now consider myself a bit of a CBX expert now. Working on No: 2 now (watch this space).

The Cadillac is the last of the great Sevilles 1979 RWD, V8 350ci (5850cc)fuel injected.
Its the top spec Elegante trim. I bought it on Ebay 4 years ago.
Sold new into the UK, RHD converted.
The car is perfect original condition un-restored. with FSH and it glides down the road.
Our RV is sublime, refitted by me. I has the 6.0 V8 Vortec. We lived in it for 6 weeks in Spain over the Xmas.
We drove back from the Costa in one go 2000km and 500l of petrol in 24 hours, no problem. This was Mary's drive up to the show (cool chic).

This was a great show and a big thanks to the Midland American Auto Club who excelled themselves.
The 49cc Peel was brilliant, it entered the burn out competition along with the Transams and Mustangs, watch out for it on Youtube.

We met 3 Kuwaiti's who drove a Mustang from Kuwait to Ireland, i was supposed to catch up with them Sunday and get their story but unfortunately missed them and didn't get a picture of the car.
