  1. 2016 Purvis Eureka Annual Meet

    Well, this weekend coming is our AGM. This year it's on Tanundra in South Australia. For me, that's about a 2800 klm round trip. Main event, aside from the actual AGM, is the National Motor Museum at Birdswoods. Been there before and it's a top vehicle museum. I'm kinda late packing and...
  2. The tale of the Holden Hurricane and the Purvis Eureka. *

    Ok, so a while ago, the Trafalgar Holden Museum in Victoria announced that it was going to have the Holden Hurricane on display. Goody!! But sadly to far for me to go have a looksee. A club member, took it upon himself, to not only go see it and take many happy snaps, but also to kindly...
  3. 2015 Purvis Eureka Annual Meet

    Ok, so late posting, the annual meet is this weekend! This year we're up in Ballina on the north coast of NSW. It's a lovely location, not that I've been there, but a quick Google shows off a nice section of the coastline. This years trip is around a 1334 klm (829 mile) round trip, or about...
  4. What a Lovely Day...

    Mad Max - Fury Road. Go see it. Just got back from seeing it, and while we don't have Mel Gibson, it's still an excellent movie. If you've seen the trailers, then you know it's way over the top. Does the plot make sense? Do we really care? It's a 2 hour movie, and the plot was enough to...
  5. Best looking hard top Nova.

    At this stage that's all we have to go on. Maybe Peter can fill in some details, it was just shown this weekend past at Stoneleigh at the National Kit Car Show. Aside from the badging (Ferrari of course), it looks amazing. Some serious fiberglass & fabrication skills there. And yes, it's Nova...
  6. Eureka 4 sale in Oz.

    But this one is a little different, thought I'd share. If you're wondering why the 'engine access', it previously had a V8 of Hemi heritage (though the providence was I think disputed).
  7. How's this for exposure!!

    Ok, so a bit of explanation. There's a exhibition in the National Gallery of Victoria at the moment, going for the next couple of months. The NGV is a proper art gallery, and for the first time, they have a exibit called Shifting Gear: Design, Innovation and the Australian Car, which...

    It's nice when a freelance journo contacts us via our club secretary and asks if they can do a writeup about your cars. *proud* So here's what she came up with. And the digital version. :D

  11. Condorman CG art

    Hi Guys, Some months ago I was digging around the net, and found this; There's a short Pixar animation called Small Fry, in which the Condorman toy makes a cameo. Sadly, not real. *whaah* So I just went digging to find it again, and I found a few other jems out there; Someone made a...

  13. The missing (VW) link

    Ok it's hot & humid, and I'm still up. Should be asleep for an early shift tomorrow, but sleep isn't possible just yet. So I remembered something that some of you may have heard me mention, and then you've probably wondered if I was loony. The air cooled Golf. So I went looking. I was...

    This years annual meet is being held this coming weekend! Looks like I'll be going with my 'Purvis Camry', as my Eureka is still being worked on. Who knows, maybe I'll get a phone call saying I can come pick up my 'reek in the next couple of days.
  20. Ecco fuel pumps by Fuel Flow

    Ok, so I still haven't got my car back from the mechanic. Part of the reason being that the mechanic can't source the faulty fuel pump. I'm somewhat annoyed by how long this is taking, so I hit the net again last night to find answers. A little digging with Google, I find a photo of what looks...
