SIMPLY, BECAUSE OLD CARS ARE VERY COOL.

[Spada]

Well, the Wolseley is off again tomorrow to enter into the 2019 Variety Bash from Newcastle on Sunday.

Doin' it for the kids 

Hope you have a ball.............and good on you for helping a charity organisation  That's what makes the difference between "living somewhere" and "being part of a community".

Nice Z car.... i'd have that in the garage.

Me too Kev. Had a 58 and a 62 Zephyr back in my younger days and often wish i'd kept one aside for future years. Is'nt hindsight a great thing.

So you want to restore a car .. Check this rebuild out     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqlJLl7D9wA                               and the video eps of the rebuild

I had a Cortina with a crossflow 250 / 4 on the floor.
Great car, went like the clappers.

Those old Z cars, were a great old thing. They outdrove the falcons and Holden's of the time.
I have an old farmer down the road that has 5 of them.
1. The car his parents bought brand new in Gatton......... In ripper condition, rego'd and on the road.
2. The car he decided to buy on impulse on the same day, In ripper condition, rego'd and on the road.
3. The pink one from out west, a very good car, last rego was 2014 and sitting under the house. (I'm trying to buy this one off him)
4. The white one, a parts car parked next to the car #3
5. The green one, a parts car parked up semi undercover and restorable.

He's a tough old guy, I raided a small part off his white one yesterday to fix his door catch mechanism on car #1.

I reckon, i will end up with car #3 one day, but he doesn't sell stuff easily.
He also has a terrific 1956 ? international flat bed truck.... ripper condition, but no rego these days.

And then there is the farming gear and tractors.....

Had a HK Monaro in my younger days.....did a midnight flip and left the car behind because I couldn't afford to re-rego it   

Yes....hindsight

Mate came round yesterday in his new pride & joy. Got to say, it was pretty cool just cruisin around for a bit 

[Jeepers Creepers]

Nice XR. Old Shit is just fun to drive and play with huh.

I take the Caddy to the shops today to our weekly shop..... Just because I can. 

(I do park it way the f*** over the back away from the Nimrods though)

[jclures]

JC you would need to find the carparks you can drive through for caravans. 

[Jeepers Creepers]

WE do suffer some size issues in the odd car park or two.

show on tele at moment Desert Collectors from Perth area

this dude has 26 FX/FJ holdens on this site and "more at another site"...  lots of rare ones too, and first known FJ ute... some money there!

[Jeepers Creepers]

I'm off this morning..... a bit west... to suss out a relic from 1961.  (its an oddball thing too)

I'm hoping its as good as it sounds (rarely) and worth the trip.
(f it works out, it will come home on a car trailer on Sunday)
If it turns out to be crap.... at least I got a nice drive in the county at a $1.80 a litre.

[Jeepers Creepers]

Got it..... 

A 1961 Austin Lancer..... A WHAT?  wait for it, yep, an Austin Lancer, but not just any Lancer.

(By the way, if ya don't know what one looks like, picture a Morris Major Elite, pretty much the same thing)

This has a mod plate fitted and is all approved for an engine with 8 spark plugs..... Now, that's got your attention.

It's fitted out with a 2 litre, OHC, twin plug Pintara engine, 5 speed gearbox, Cortina rear end and a host of other mods.
This thing is quicker than Teflon coated turd off a chrome plated shovel.

Noddy's  car   ..      EDIT : Well ok then they updated the grill and  for the record  I prefer the Noddy car look

[Jeepers Creepers]

That's a 58 ya goober.... mine is a 61.

In the trim its in with the engine etc, I would expect it to run a high 14 over the quarter.

Its a well sorted car, Fiat disc brakes, sway bars front and rear.... the owner has had it since 1968 and used the car on the Mount Cotton Hill Climb Circuit.
