Hey everyone, I've just moved to Gladstone for work from Mackay and wanted to know if there are any Ford clubs here or Rocky? I've just sold my Hilux and bought a Silhouette BA XR8. Got it home today and man i miss that power
 I was in the Ford club back in Mackay which was a pretty big turn out but no one ever showed up half the time. |

Hey Mate,
I, and a few others are members in the XR6 and XR8 Club of Queensland. We get together from time to time. Send me a PM if you want to chat with a number, I will give you a call.

hi guys.
its not a dedicated Ford club but i am a member of "Curtis Coast Cruisers", its a gladstone car club that is a pretty active and is open to all makes, models, ages and styles of car. pretty much everything from restored morris minors to blown XB coupes and everything inbetween. a lot of classic and muscle cars but everyone is welcome and everyone mixes together. a very friendly bunch. they meet up every couple of weeks for breakfast or a run somewhere or a bbbq, hold a dyno day each year, plus attend a lot of other groupes events so there is nearly always something to do. i can get you the secretarys contact number if you are interested or you are welcome to turn up at one of our days to have a look what you think if you want.

I'm in gladdy! I need some people that actually like to cruise and hang out and just talk cars rather than go to the water front and lay some rubber. Would rather not get back into the "hoon" scene as it got me into a bit of hot water once before :S
