This weekend just passed I was lucky enough to be invited to attend the Reliability Run put on by the River City Coupe and Roadster Club. Its entry criteria is pre 1936 vehicles, yes very OT for here but I'm pretty sure you'll enjoy the following pics. Starts Friady night followed by an entrant only run on Saturday annd then Sunday was a breaky combined with the new Fuel mag release..

Friday night kicked off at the Elfin Heritage Centre.

And the resto work itself, the B24 Liberator. This is being restored by a group of volunteers. Very very impressive, they even fired up one of the engines

bet that elfin is a firecracker i just bought a 2002 statesman with a 5.7 in it and it goes extremely good and it weighs 1650kg that elfin would be only about half that

Great day for it.

That would have blown the cob webs out of your roadster, how'd the brakes hold up?
Great pic's as usual .

Awesome photos and an awesome looking run. It's fueling my desire to own a model A... dangerous..

Sure did, brakes I think still have a little air in them but they're waaaay better but not quite 100%. It's my back that seems to have taken a hammering, only now just coming good. Man the roads were rough! Total Kay's for the weekend would be nearly 400. Nothing compared to what the SA/NSW boys did.

Apparently it's no fun on a skid pan! Mate got to play in it at the prooving ground a few years back and said its three seconds of throttle then lift off as they were told not to fry the tyres too much and it didn't really hook up at all . Wouldn't let them out on the track either. So my guess is it's more than a firecracker.
