Well i didnt know there was anything on in Tanunda yesterday but thats just me being out of touch these days, if there was. Missed quite a few cars inc a unbelievably immaculate Karmann Ghia. But couldn't help a few snaps.

I am pretty sure that the owner of that red wagon is the guy that bought my EB Fairmont in the early 2000's. (unless of course he has sold the wagon)

BFIIGhiaZF6 could do with your time in your garage and try out some of your many bottles
I still like the gold one better, grey looks like aborted Opel

 Yesterday, no photo but high street Northcote, mint condition early 1970s F100, looked like it was restored. Unfortunately LED light bar on the front of it in between two halogen spotlights sort of ruined the look of it. |

This afternoon: white Falcon S, manual trans [I was on my bicycle so I stopped to look at the interior - the car was parked; although, were all Falcon S models manuals?]; green and white plates starting with an 'E'; clean, original condition. (My 1990 XF ute had green/white plates starting with an 'E'.) I wrote down the plate, then I realise that it's a personalised plate. I look it up on Vicroads rego check and see that its a '1989 white Ford sedan' with August 1989 compliance. It must be an EA. You might be able to work out what the number plate is.
It's currently registered until 6 Oct 2024; I guess the owner has the auto rego payment facility with Vicroads and must intend to drive it for another year at least. |

Love the ZF's, my first experience in a Ford V8 was drifting gravel as passenger in one of those
 Saw a third generation Mondeo wagon in really nice nick down by the beach today, black colour. Realised I haven't seen one for ages.

Saw what I'm pretty sure was a gb meteor today. Either that or a ga, but pretty sure it was a gb as my parents had one of them about the time I got my ps back around 1990. Was in white, the same as what my parents had, too. My parents had a ka laser at the same time, and that became my little run about. The gb was way more refined.
Both great little cars.

A Datsun 1600 painted up in a race type livery in blue and white. Looked great. And a yellow wagon of same model earlier this week (seen this around a few times this year).
This morning I was behind a huuuge Dodge wagon, looked sick. Plates tell me its a 63. Could have been a great hearse, wouldve held 4 stiffs side by side in the thing. Was LH drive, the driver was lost inside there so had to look close haha. |
