Never too many toys

These older cars are harder to find but I still love seeing peoples classics driving around.

As well as the 65 Bellett, I also have a 1966 Pontiac Parisienne, First photo in Kojac or Cop Shop trim (I could put the spats on too) & second as it is driven most of the time.
It was a barn find that is totally original with a 283ci & powerglide, Good slow cruiser & so cheap to run on club rego.

Next is a 1971 Golden Anniversary Lincoln Continental Town Car. It was our wedding car nearly 20 years ago & will be back on the road with club rego soon.
It is a 460ci that you could nearly fit the bellett in the boot or at least 6 dead bodies (I'm guessing) another nice clean original.

Last is my daily driver VY SS Commodore, Good cheap horsepower with modern creature comforts

The shed is walking room only, there is a mid 80s Mercedes 380 also but that isn't a classic yet.
The bellett now has a whopping 8878 miles on it. I have just got it drivable after 30 years & put 2 miles on it in my back paddock getting it ready for Mudgee.
It was great to drive it for the first time.

I will be trailering it out there but it will be there all original including the tyres it was sold with.
It is not perfect but it is pretty amazing for its age.

Looking forward to being schooled on all things bellett at the nationals.
