Default 34 3w

Our 34 is in the Rocky Nats show this weekend
We drove up yesterday in the rain and roadworks amongst the semi's and caravans
Took some work to clean it up
My daughter in-law Kirra has been the driving force in getting the 34 ready
The 34 has been in the shed since Carol passed away 3 yrs ago
So this weekend is a shake down for the trip to Echuca for the nationals in around 4 weeks
That will be around 4000klmi klm
I know the 34 won't look like this when I get back from there

Nice display -- like the back issues of the V-8 TIMES placed around the display.
Great way to promote the Club.

Lawrie,
We are doing the best we can.
Thank you for the invitation! We have trouble getting 30 miles from home some days!
Hey could you take a bunch of pictures for all of us? It will help make us feel like we are there too.
Will we see you at Auburn in June?? I want to get a picture of you in the ragged old 32 dump truck!
Regards,
Chris and Cheryl

Beautiful car. The only thing wrong is the steering wheel is on the wrong side!
