| | Posted : 30 Aug 2015 - 08:08 Post title : Uki Pub ride | | | Went for a ride today with a few mates to the recently re opened Uki Pub. Those in our neck of the woods may remember it burnt down about 2 years ago. Anyway they have rebuilt it bigger and better. As it had only just re opened and we arrived at lunch time the pub was packed with bikers and day trip drivers so the kitchen was a bit unprepared and ran out of certain meals but not to worry there was still plenty of beer. One of mates had just sold his speed master and upgraded to a black 2011 Tbird so we now have 3 Tbirds in our local flock. So for all you Nth NSW or SE QLD bikers the Uki pub is back open and a worthy destination for a days ride. Cheers. Dan

Also love what looks like a red Torino in the background.
I had a 1970 Cobra Jet in the day! (429 C.I.)

| | Posted : 30 Aug 2015 - 18:23 Post title : Re: Uki Pub ride (Re: VABird) | | | Not a Torino..... It's either a XA,XB or XC Ford Falcon Coupe. Can't tell from the distance.
One of the rare but famous Aussie Muscle cars.
As seen in the Original Mad Max Film staring a young Mel Gibson...
Looks good Dan, We'll be riding through there on the Brissy ride at the end of October. Might need to test the beer taps..

Smitty,
I thought the tail lights looked different. The Torino was an upgraded Falcon. Your XA, XB, XC is apparently an Aussie designation.

XA, XB or XC who cares??? ...............there is only one Aussie muscle car for that period of time

I had a minging Mercury Montego ... virtually no paint, no usable suspension and drove like an aircraft carrier. I loved that car. Tell you how rough it was I bought off of the old Rent A Heap Cheap set up in Huston Tx. Imagine it ... they didn't even want it.
