Spotted turning onto Royal pde in Parkville- a Lotus Esprit. Silver paint and looking suspiciously new, possible rebuild.

The 1.8 Pulsar manual was a nice car. Holden re-badged it as the Astra plus there was the HSV version. I can't remember how HSV modified the car. The Pulsar Hatch was one of the sportier looking Japanese hatches in its time. |

Tweaked Morgan Plus 8 in Epping the other day; seemed to be EFI with auto and ignition cut on upshifts. Very surprising to observe something that sounded more like a Trackhawk but wrapped in a Morgan body.
“Shed find” brown XA sedan in a Cambewarra Rd driveway near the Bomaderry Woolies/KFC complex on Wednesday last. Bronzy-gold TR3A (I think) driving in Hunter Lane, Hornsby on Thursday. Friday an absolute gem driving on Linda St Hornsby, Mk1 Esky panel van in full “lad van” trim - heavy rake, white with wide blue double side stripes, roof spoiler and I think also a pop-up sunroof. Mint condition, younger driver. I would put quids on I having black or blue shag trim in the rear. |

Heard it before I spotted it, a manual T3 TS50 in signature Blueprint paint. The driver wasn't gunning it, but I can tell that distinctive Windsor warble with my eyes closed. It's been a very long time since I spotted a T-Series in the wild, a true delight to see.
It's also been a while since I have seen a MG TF, this one in canary yellow. Dreadful car, even if it was a mid-engine.

Someone asked the other day, why is it you don't see many older fords on the road? This might have something to do with it.
This thread along with all the others I follow have gone really quiet. I'm starting to get withdrawal symptoms. One Man
