Get the feeling I've done this before. All well, another bellett back where it belongs

Thanks to all that helped get it back across the border, Garage of Awesome for the lend of the trailer, pa_man for his help, and oz toffa for the tow vehicle and of course Peter for letting the car go to someone who could never afford to pay what this car was really worth in the first place.

I guess what claws means is that its always good to pinch one back; there are really probably a dozen Bellett enthusiasts oere in Sa total so any extra cars is a bonus!

that'd be telling davo...
all i will say is that it's not only what, but how many, coz trust me... there's ALOT more around here than bellett.net ever discusses,
but Glenn knows what i mean... and to what extent!

Does'nt really matter anyway. Those that want the cars are now getting opportunities, theres prenty of cars popping up more often on Bel.net and in Japan with the exchange rates like they are. I know for me this time last year I wanted a GT and have now got that and the green sedan which has to be the bargain of the century. The way cars are swapping hands I think everyone will soon have what they want

as long as cars get saved by people that will look after them then all is good coz far too many have been wasted or ruined by 'experts' that weren't into it for the right reasons.

Fantastic!
Nice when a good bloke gets a good buy.
Thanks to Glenn for 'keeping it in the family'.
Now, will she be making the big trip to Merimbula? With all the 'new' cars showing up, excitement is BUILDING!

Bullett. You have seen my red gt I bought it off bob some years ago along with a roling shell and parts. The florian is under way it's in getting rust cut out. The blue gt that we have for over thirty years is almost ready . Just the seats to finish thanks to Greg for the frames . Gricey
