Thanks Clay. Not a show car but is a tidy unit. Good to meet you on the weekend. Cheers

We arrived back in Adelaide late yesterday after nearly 4 days on the road.
Now that I have the wipers working thanks to Clay lending me a wiper motor, only rain was yesterday afternoon.
.
A couple of photos from our trip.
At the Musicians club in Broken Hill on the way up.
Quick stop off at Cobar.
Narrabri Radio Telescopes detour. Model of the scopes in use.
No problem when you have a big red six.
.
Miners memorial at Broken Hill.
.
Stopped in at Pro Harts galley.
.
I did have break down on the way home. Front uni joiner on the tailshaft dropped a cap out.
Only 25 km's from Jamestown and with the help of Lennies, we were able to get a replacement with fitting at the Stihl dealer.
Go figure. Quick drive back to the car, bolted in and off home in the rain.
Also go to have a back out vehicle and driver, thanks Anne-Marie
Cherers,
Roger

There is a right way and a wrong way and then there is my way which is usually the long way.

A couple more pic's of our trip.
A truck off the road just out of Coonabarabran. No one injured as the ambo's were sitting watching the cops do their thing.
Cool mural at the Broken Hill railway station.
The Indian Pacific train tried to out run my wagon.
.
Do I need to have a charging station like the one at the Toowoomba Golf for next years Nats ?
.
Whilst in Toowoomba saw these down side street.
Very cool van.
Cheers,
Roger

You hang on to that wiper motor Mr. President sir. Front uni failure, scary.
