Hi all,
Pics from Shannons Wheels 2010 in Canberra - on the lawns in front of Old Parliament House on Sunday March 21.
Fold-up middle row seats in the stretch Caddy:
Stretch Caddy exterior - the way the doors look open really spoils it in my opinion:
Makers mark on an old headlamp, off another Caddy:
Old Pugeot powered pushie:
Room M100 in OPH
Morris(?) Mayflower - like a sub-compact Roller:
Aston Martin DBS:
Sleepy monster:
Old Pug:
Lovely colour scheme:
Mint condition 220SE interior:
Hard to see, but a lovely burgandy + white paint job:
Gotta love pillarless:
Diplomatic plates - where can I get some:
Lovely Buick, another jet-age car (hood emblem):
Obligatory T603 - was getting a lot of attention, as it should:
Fluid drive must have been important to write it on the bumper:
Caddy - same car as before:
6.3 - from another car club:
The stretch Caddy and another, tail to tail - wish they still designed cars like that:
Old Harleys:
Volvo 262(?) coupe - rare - nice lines, and Colin Powell drove it during a visit to Canberra as secretary of state (gave Alexander Downer a lift - Powell is a Volvo nut apparently):
Built 1946 I think it said - nice:
Austin I think this was - tiny:
Nash - you don't appreciate how tall the older cars are until next to them:
Beautiful blue somethingorother - restored from a pile of rust:
The jet age again:
Lincoln - these fascinate me for some reason, although they would be shocking to drive:
Buick: near-horizontal fins:
Same Buick from the rear - love the badge "font" too:
More fins - poke your eye out fins:
DeTomaso Pantera - tyres twice as wide as mine:
There were lot more cars there, including MBs, but I was only photographing what took my fancy. There were whole rows of Skylines and newer Commodores and BMWs and the likes, but they seemed boring this year.
