    Wow, there are a lot of bitchin hot rods there. Thanks for the pics.
     
  5. Great pics. Nice inside location but sure does,nt look like the usual winery . Where is the carb on the model A roadster and does the grey pipe on the other side of the engine have something to do with the carb ?
    Do i see a curved dash Olds or is it a horse drawn buggy ?

    Love this stuff! Interesting contrast between this and the GNRS.

    Well spotted and correct, IIRC that Olds has done the London to Brighton a few times driven by John Dymond of Penrite Oil fame. Venue was his old factory site which Penrite still owns.
     
  8. My first thought was it might be the Bill Patterson Olds. ( Ringwood )

    This could have been the AMT model kit some kid built in 63. So cool.

  16. That is some fine coverage. I count over 40 vehicles in the one parking lot photo. How long is a reliability run in Australia?
