Great progress. Sifting all that spoil must have been a mission.

Shucks.

It's the first thing I would do.

Nah, they'd be too hard for me.

About 20 years worth of Mustang Owners Club lanyards from which we hang our membership card around our necks. A new colour is issued each financial year when we renew our membership.

Yes, I missed that one. That was a Holden Commodore here and the GTO was a Holden Monaro.

Just a pic of some boxes of parts but the hydraulic clutch conversion parts covered back in post 1037 have arrived. Always fun opening a delivery. Leaving aside the shipping cost, this was eight business days since placing the order, from Idaho to suburban Melbourne, It went from Idaho to LA to...

Some nice rides there. Product of Australia that last one, from back when we made cars here.

I'm not 100% sure but I think in the '70's those things were assembled in RHD form from knock down kits by Australian Motor Industries (AMI) better known for doing the same with Ramblers. It would have had a Rambler straight six or V8 originally, most likely the former. They were a slug but the...

Looks like a very nice trip. Lyndon. Your house plans also look great and I bet you're excited it's all about to start. I think the plywood wall is a top idea. I wish I'd done that on the two plaster walls I have in my garage. If that's a stud wall between the garage and the house I'd be doing...

Even replicas are commanding stupid money these days. https://www.seven82motors.com.au/lot/march-29th-2026/xy-gt-replica/

Well, I think we all have garage envy now. What a fantastic set up,

For context about this apparently random post readers should refer to the suggestion from Kitdoctor on Hewey's thread https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/threads/heweys-1950s-single-garage-cottage.325444/post-11611790 Unfortunately, I have no magnificent photo archive like Bob Heine regularly...

I think that's how Holdens came out of the factory.

I'll see what I can do.

.... and I had one but sold it, a long time before the early 2000's. I guess I was in the boat but drove it onto the rocks.

Wow. I guess you made it safely? That looks like a capsize waiting to happen.
