Hi there all

As a few of you may have known - took the old Series One Fire Engine over and put on display in the vintage car section last weekend.

The local Car club of Whyalla had a big display on British Vehicles on the weekend, Jags, Mini Coopers - lots of vintage bikes etc - (the Series One took out best vintage).

But here is a few pictures -

Digger you would love these, been told this could be your new work car.

SA Police had a display on with a very early V8 Commodore and two BSA Police Bikes.

Hi there Dinty

So you had me going there for a minute - what the hell is he talking about...

No sorry no pictures of the Brick or Bricks (on wheels)

Digger would have been in his ellement with these old Police Cars - a mutural friend who I work with told me some stories of what they used to get up to in the old V8 Dunnydoors to get increased power.........very naughty......hahahahahahahahaha

I had beter be nice to him as I will be passing by for a cuppa next week - as if my offer is excepted I will be skipping over the border again for another toy (my wife calls it a mid life crist thing and it goes fast (so it is not a Land Rover)).

All the best
