The postponed Australia Day Run was held on the 12th Feb and this was the first outing we attended in the Tourer. The run did high light a few areas that need further attention on the car, but I must say she did run pretty good afetr being off the road for almost 40 years. the more I drive it the better it is getting.

Anyway the forecast of Rain did not eventuate and it was a glorious weather to mark the day.

A few weeks ago my wife and I decided to go on a test run in the Tourer.

We ended up at Cleveland Point a short drive from where we live.

There was a Wedding taking place with a Camel involved.
No the camel was not the bride!

We noticed a lady taking photo's of the wedding and
then she was taking photo's of our car little car.

I asked her if she was the wedding photograhper,
as she has a real big proffesional looking camera,
but she said no it was just a hobby for her.

I asked if I could get copies of the photo's she took,
she said yes a volenteered to take a few more.

I got them from her last week and boy you sure can
tell what a digfferane a good camera and the skills to use it makes.

So Credit for these photo's goes to Judy Neuman










I am very thankful to Judy for her kindness in supplying these photo's.

I feel ashamed that I sent mine to a panel beater spray painter. Should have tackled it myself but sort of run out of puff and enthusiasm (took a wile to spell that correctly)

Hi Ollie, sorry I just found your reply to my posting I made back in September.
I did come to Ormiston and we chatted. I was the guy asking about how you fitted the mud flaps
Your car certainly looks great!

Hi Oli

Those photos look awesome even if only by a hobbyist who should probably be a professional really.

Best regards
Nancy
