FrankThis 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
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.
And then a flock of Bolwells appeared! More on these further down thread as there's an interesting story I need to share.
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.
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.
Owen Mehegan@vwdasher wtf they look like 70s funny cars.
Chris @ FXWorks@vwdasher SJ-413K FTW!
Nathan Avots-Smith@vwdasher Suzuki Jimny! Though there were also Holden-badged Isuzus in the early ’90s.
@autonerdery I know, they did so much wacky stuff, I am honestly not sure if it's a Suzuki or Isuzu! or even something else?
Eobard Toyotathon@vwdasher Virgil Exner's work is always 🤌🤌🤌
thefathippyFins are completely ridiculous, but so cool! 😎 I love 'em!
