Coming Summer Down Under
« on: September 29, 2013, 06:53:37 »
Went for a drive today as the weather warms up and I have got my car back after its third engine pull out for oil leaks done under warranty after rebuild. Car went fine and no oil leaks.

Some photos taken in front of some of the old buildings around the local area.  Its an old hill town (Mt. Macedon) used in summer by the people of Melbourne.

Ask Garry, 66andblue, Rolf-Dieter and me... yes, a 60's blue really is an eye catcher...

Soul,
