Photos taken at the Benz Barn Meeting of the Clans II
« on: August 28, 2019, 00:06:43 »
On Saturday we all meet at Dan’s Benz Barn. Followed by a nice lunch, at 5pm we all left together for a super supper before we all departed in different directions for the night.

Some close up shots from our Australian Visitor (having driven 7,250 miles to be here), .... notice how the steering wheel is on the right hand side, I mean on the correct side, how else would the Lancers have defended them selves as they travelled with there lance in there Right Hand :)

what a cool assortment of Pagodas!

Amazing how many color combos these came in.

I especially love that Black one w/the Red interior!
