    Default Old Ute

    I've always wanted to take a pic of this. This car is on Remembrance Drive near Razorback. It's been there a long time....

    Nice shot clubby. I was wondering why you didn't take the photo from a different angle as the big gum tree spoils the shot (IMHO), that is untill I clicked on the link and saw the photo's from other angles. Very interesting.
    To grow old is inevitable.... To grow up is optional

    Confidence, the feeling you have before you fully understand the situation.

    What could possibly go wrong.

    It could use a coat of paint & a new set of tyres.

    If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

    Good pic Clubby. I drive past that every day and think it would look good in my yard.

    Default The Ute.

    Hi all,
    If memory serves me, I think it is an Austin. Don't know the Year but possibly the 1950's. What say you all.
    Regards,
    issatree.

    Do the RAC carry chainsaws?
    It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it.

    The seed for that tree must have been in the engine bay when it was sold new.
    Yes, it is an Austin A40 Devon
