Thumbs up Trip away in the 34

I will post some pics and stuff along the way in the next two or 3 weeks in the 34,
We are off down to Grafton in NSW, about 2050 klms , leaving on Monday or Tuesday next week
I have driven up to Mackay from my home in Gladstone (445klm).
The 34 is quite a bit different than my 33 and caravan to drive,mind you, the 33 has a 265 ci engine and 3.78 rear,while the 34 has the original 221 Babbitt engine and 3.54 gears,it hums along very nicely though
Fuel usage to date worked out at 125 ltr/100 is. 18.7 mp us gal. 22.1 mp imperial gal
So far my new exhaust has been fine with no clanging or banging on the bumps and whoopsies on our lovely Bruce hiway
The pic from inside the model A is my friends 28 phaeton,we had been out to the gem fields in it for a rally over the weekend, a 750klm trip, with no drama.8
