Today 3 grumpy old men set of in a 1972 Mercedes to attend the Motor Classica car show in the Royal Exhibition Building in Melbourne (built 1880)

Here are a range of pics from visit. Included Jag engine **** especially for Clarke :-)

First the venue





Here you go Clarke






Assorted Jag-ism




Ferraris everywhere




Auto - Marine crossover




For the Aussies, some local racing god cars and rarities




Some vintage Rolls Royce engine plumbing

 

The best car show in Australia.

I was not allowed to return to the auction night.

 

:-) it may be all for the best both in terms of bank balance and marital harmony

besides you would have looked silly with your arms handcuffed behind your back

Its Melbourne, I'm sure you had a wonderful dinner :-)
