    Tristan with friends at Borumba.

    S.S.C.L.R.O.C. Open day. We met them at the camp ground after a 2 hour run from home as we were coming from the other direction. Harry the Puma came an hour or so after us in case we broke down, however all went well.
    After lunch and a vehicle inspection we headed for home to arrive before dark. Still running in so 75 to 80 kph was a good speed.

    Running in

    Looks fantastic.
    75 to 80 is running in, what was the angle of the down hill slope?
    80 is as fast as I push my 2l's.

    Hey this is on the flat Dennis. Over 80 the gearbox noise gets a bit much. I rebuilt it with new bearings but some gears were mix and match. Perhaps they will bed in.
    Being a heavy little chappie stopping is more of a problem.

    Yes I have some photos of his when he owned it.
    It is now in the safe hands of another forum member and will no doubt surface eventually.

    Where is Ian now? I have a mate that wants to get in touch with him.

    Yeah thats great, i havent seen Ian in a while but i did go out to his place a few years ago to get some parts for my 55 and he gave me a handful of rivets, and he was showing me his photo albums in particular the Tickford.
    i'm impressed to see they exist in Aus, and it's a credit to you and the other people out there that own and are currently restoring them!

    Cheers Chris

    As mentioned it is now owned by a forum member, however I believe that it has been shipped to the UK for a body re-build before it will eventually return here.

    I'm sure our mate will eventually show us.

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.
