Not all trees are burnt in Australia!

Photo from today’s drive East of Melbourne. ( more photos in ‘events’).

Great drive and company although the driver of the white car was not very social ......didn’t talk much 😊

Rob that day still keeps me motivated to finish mine...being the lone unknown driver in a "different model" mercedes somewhere in the distance cleverly hidden from that photo :)

Hope to catch up again soon Joe.

Good to hear you are still at it - all the little bits add up.

I just finished my Burgundy car after 5.5years. In fairness, if we didn’t have a car show that we were targeting ( that was subsequently cancelled) it might have been some years away before finishing.

Hate to admit this - but the Pandemic actually gave me the spare time needed to get the last bits sorted.

Hi Rob likewise !!!

Thats good news for you! What next?  :)
Sometimes I look at all the random bits in the boxes and think WTF!!!!! (I didn't pull it apart) but I try not to avoid those thought patterns as I actually thoroughly enjoy restoring every bit of it myself (maybe except for the front subframe - thats been a right old #$%$##@!!!).

Take care,

Joe

Guys,


Given the Corona lock down and now winter descending, when the veil lifts I think we need to have another Pagoda run.

...and a Corona or 10!

Let's hope sanity prevails and they allow us to just drive again soon. Some states are easing that restriction from tonight.
