I used to complain about cranky old CODGERS, but I woke up one morning and realised that I have BECOME ONE! Oh Well, I should EMBRACE it I guess! At work when I tell apprentices stories about Hot EJs and Zephyrs and Vauxhall Crestas, It occurs to me that they dont want to hear my @#$% the same as I didnt want to listen to the boring stories my old tradesmen used to tell me. Problem is, Im only 53 so really I only LOOK old. Im still living the Dream though, Driving FB EKS, S Valiants, Tank Fairlanes and Old Falcons to work every day, Rain or Shine. My bones ache like an old fellow, but that could be from sitting on CRUMMY WORN OUT bench seats.

Thanks Rusty, but I wish I had a few shiny ones put away like you. If I had THE BEST FB and THE BEST EK IN AUSTRALIA in my shed like you do, I would be content to just admire them.
Even just standing next to your FB makes me a BETTER PERSON! As for the EK, well nothing has touched it yet! My advise is,just drive the drivers and have fun with them, but dont go towing box trailers to Parramatta tip with those good cars.
Thanks Rusty, but with the regos I pay I could go BROKE, but Ill go broke having FUN!
Better late than never. Here's a little bit of video of our run to Maryborough and back to HB. Loved Russell's PV trailer combo. Also chased down Lou in his wagon on the way back. Another top performer.
Sorry the video's not much but time got away with us this year plus I'm still struggling with editing them quicker.
