Went To The Car Show

[downbeatplumb]

In 1969, I ONCE drove a mate's 1968 Mini Cooper S for 20 miles. I have never forgotten the thrill and pure terror of hitting the top of that hill at 120mph.

I used to have a mini. Shittest car i've ever owned.

If you know how to take care of them, they take care of you. The '64 was one of the most dependable cars I have ever owned: Wore out clutches and brakes, tires and points. Never left me stranded.

I like the car show at the annual Royal Adelaide show) in September, which is spring here. They show new cars,such as say A Ferrari, Maserati etc. I remember almost fainting with pleasure the year they had an ISO. Today my rich man's dream car is a Buggati Veyron.








Poor man's dream cars include a Jaguar XJS,a Beemer,a Boxter and a Jensen interceptor. Best car I've actually owned; A Datsun 1600,which I bought new in1972.

Jag



Interceptor




Today A red Toyota Camry; comfy,safe-ish and as boring as dogshit.

The guy in the photo is your friend. So you talk to dead people? Creepy.

Who is it? I'm not sure. Gangster and murderer John Dillinger or fruitcake billionaire Howard Hughes?

Nice cars!

I checked out your photobucket link. I'm familiar with the one photograph of Billy the Kid, holding the rifle, but I've never seen the other three photos of him until now.
