I've found loads of old Aussie stuff during my loft clear out this Easter weekend.
It will take ages to scan it all and I have a huge job list to complete during lock down.
I am actually busier than ever!
Just off to try and fit a 57 Chevy truck headliner rubber

Would be interested to see it if you get the chance.
I'm the same - busier than ever. I look at those people in the company on furlough sitting at home learning to bake etc with envy! Wish I had the time for things like that!

Good stuff!
This is a great lap of Bathurst by Steve Johnson in Mustang Sally:
I see he is in the replica Tru-Blu XD Falcon this year, great looking build.
Cheers I was there in 2017 & had a good look around johnsons car, he was on fire that year

Here's a good one for Tilley and his VF...
Even though he's leading the race for eight laps, he doesn't get a lot of camera time until he blows the engine and has an oil fire to put out.
But the scream of the inline six is to be heard all around the circuit most of the telecast up till that time.

It’s in its new garage at home now Matt but doing a bit of a light interior resto on minty at the moment so it’s keeping me busy
Will probably start taking it apart this winter
Hope you and the family are well
