    Took my wife and her mum away for a few days after a super tough few weeks and to play some golf. Both needed a circuit breaker. Couldnt believe my luck that at the same hotel we are staying at was a stop for an awesome Classic and Vintage Car Rally for pre 77 cars. These cars were shipped from all over the globe and are doing just over 3000 miles through Japan from the North to South in 4 weeks. There are quite a few non HAMB cars but some really nice early Fords and a Chev. Some of these cars have done quite a few of these including Peking to London etc.

    For those interested heres their Instagram page. Was awesome to see some may cars worth a LOT of money including the Bentley, SWB 911 etc being used how they were meant too.

    There was a LOT of love for the flathead Fords - apparently very reliable as well as power and exhaust note. That 36 convert sounded awesome!
