    My ship is heading out the beginning of next month. One of our Port of Calls is Sydney in the beginning of January. I would like to try to meet up with some of you hot rodders from down under. Anyone in the Sydney area? Any cool places I should check out besides the Kings Cross area? Did that last time I was there in the early 90's I don't think my liver has recovered yet.

    I can not believe the Sydney members have not responded.

    If you get to Melbourne Australia Day long weekend is the Hot Rod Show.

    Send me a pm when you get here, or a day or two before & I will show you some HAMB friendly sights. Sorry I have not seen this before, but I will gladly show you around. Cheers.:)
     
  10. I'm available from the 5th January on, so if you want to contact me prior we can either do some sightseeing and as Sunday is the 1st Sunday of the month and in Sydney we have a coffee morning with a diverse selection of vehicles in attendance.

    I'll bookmark this thread and check it regularly.

    I lived in Sydney years ago and get there once a year, the cross is sleaze city.
    The best thing Sydney has is its harbour and beaches, and so many of them.
    The harbour at night is great, you don't need to pay for a tourist type cruise just jump on one of the commuter ferries. The rocks area has lots of places to eat and drink.

    As ex Navy that's been there, you are going to get SO f*ing drunk and the girls are friendly. Be safe and enjoy the sights. The only thing I have to remind me of Australia are books matches and mugs from the different bars. Some, I have no recollection of getting.

    If you could get up to Brisbane i would be able to take you around a couple of places and keep you occupied for a couple of days, but i don't know anyone in Sydney. Maybe jump on to Ozrodders.com and see if anyone can help you out, hope you have a great trip. Lee
     
  21. Did a 10 day R&R in Sydney in 1969. Yes, I'm old but the memories are fresh. Behave yourself, stay out of the Cross, and enjoy yourself. Never met an Aussie I didn't like. They are like us only different.
