Thread: Bay to Birdwood 2011. Where were the landies?

After a spontaneous drive yesterday through the hills, I realised that the Bay to Birdwood was on. Remembering that it was the 1956 to 1976 I thought it would be a good chance to see a few landies.

Fairly early on a nice grey Series pottered past ( I tried to grab a photo on the phone but missed it). A bit later on I caught a glimpse of an Ex-Mil IIa(?) which I hardly saw as I was helping a guy on a motorbike find his centre spring that he lost somewhere along the way. It was a bit sad really, I was hoping to see a few more than that.

There were a fair few other interesting vehicles though, including an ex-mil humvee (never thought I'd see one of them in Aus). Where was everyone?

It was a good day regardless sitting on the swags in the sun watching the cars drive past though. The hands got a bit sore from waving after 3 hours though

I did see a couple of ex-mil Landies.

However, as I was driving the opposite way at the time, it was a bit hard to make out details.

Mind you, there were probably only 3 or so that I saw, so you are right in saying that there weren't too many at all.

Plenty of Mini's thou. Must have been in excess of 20.
