Some time ago, I found a box of slides (about 100) at a second hand junk shop. Among them are a few street scenes and caravan park shots as well as some interesting ones of the Capalaba drive-in (the first one in Queensland). Though all these shots dont feature FB-EK Holdens I find them interesting just the same and wish to share them with the forum punters. All in glorious colour.

note primer spot on SA plated FB

This is one of my faves, check the 50? Chev & the Bodgie mobile 36 &*#@ coupe.

For you SunnyTim, the above 54 &*#@ at the Capalaba drive-in

And an Peters truck that would make a cool camper now.

The people who's slides these are, are unknown but the cars they had went from a Vauxhall, 54 Cusso, 56 Cusso then some early 60's Dodges.
This servo shot, I've been told in in Bundaberg as the water tower still stands.

The entrance to a caravan park, somewhere.

Hey SunnyRob that last servo shot, is exactly the same as my fathers Vauxhall Velox (had a red interior) Just can't recall if it had a towbar ?

Great old photo's

Gents.

As it has been nearly 10 years since anyone has commented on, or added to this post, I thought just due to its content,
It is really worth revisiting.

Some amazing images of old times in Oz.

Any new ones to add?
