Plenty of Classic Car shows to go to here. I think I have been a ‘car guy’ all my life. I just love the old petrol burning things. Not P.C. in this modern age but I can’t help it. So this week we were off to MUDGEERABA. (Where do they get these Australian place names?). This one is a regular, beside a Pub, farmers market type thing, food, play areas for the kiddies and good luck if you can find a car park. Not for your Classic of course, easy parking right there. There they were, all shapes and sizes. Yes there were Cadillacs with air bags, and Hot Rods with dump pipes. A very original XU1. Bathurst petrol tank, correct cylinder head, long 1st gear. It was owned by a Guy in Hellensvale who bought it off his best friend who had it for 40 years. WOW! Are there any of you Mustang ‘historians’ who know about this one. I never knew that. All sorts of stories about cars in this world. I was interested to compare the size of a ’66 compared to the newer ones as I wait for my new one to arrive from Ford, and sit beside our ’66 fastback in the garage! Fine weather, car people, fresh coffee, full house of cars- what more do you want? I don’t remember these! So there you have it . Another fabulous day in the Gold Coast Car Country.
