We got there early so we could watch everyone come in.

It was great weather (brisk but the sun was nice) for a little meet out the back of a pub.

And they just kept on coming in! Was a great turnout.

This Morris Marina was in great shape

@vwdasher

So, better than new? 😉

I liked the looks of the Leyland Marina, but they certainly developed *a reputation*. 😳

@thefathippy They are a model you just don't see at shows, they were not exactly treasured back in the day! Nice to see something different, not just a sea of Holdens and Fords. Plus the owner of this really loved his car.

This hot rodded Morris van was so cute

This gorgeous 61(?) Chrysler was stunning inside and out. Would have been a car for someone rich, with all the mod cons at the time. And those fins are spectacular.

For a crisp Spring morning, it was a big turnout! Cars just kept on rolling in.

Hey I thought Austins were meant be teeny and cute?

This gorgeous Bristol arrived, a rarity here.

Onto the mature motors that arrived. This Chev

And this Morris

Rovers come in many shapes and sizes

I think that Holden was a rebadged Isuzu?

Nice to see some Daihatsus, there's a brand rarely seen at shows.

We saw that pink Caddy at the Good Friday cars & coffee across town.

That blue on the Falcon was utterly glorious in the sunshine.

They just kept on coming in! And such excellent makes and models. Great mix.

Holdens, git yer Holdens here.

And then a flock of Bolwells appeared! More on these further down thread as there's an interesting story I need to share.

Check out that lovely Datto

Even a Roller showed up!

A flock of Mokes arrived, I was busily sending photos to my friend with a Moke saying WHERE THE HELL ARE YA

Mokes? So many Mokes! Even a Mini Moke! So very cool.

God I love a wee Austin

Soo those Bowells! Ok so Bolwell was a kit car made here in Melbourne

And this bulbous one is one that almost never existed.

Just extraordinary to be able to see something so rare and unusual. Not that there's many of the other models left around. All fibreglass, they are an interesting part of Australian motoring history that many not know exists.
