Some Fiats arrived and parked away from us, which was mystifying.

It looked like a few car clubs were being represented, with a number of Austins and Austin Healeys.
And quite a few veterans rolled in as well.
This one had a modernised interior with a radio and speakers and modern gauges included. Looked a bit odd but then hey, it's their cruiser, they can do what they like.
Wandered over to that Fiat Dino, so pretty.
This is a 1925 Rugby, with modern running gear as you can't find original parts any more.
That Citroen we'd seen recently, turned up as well.
This Lancia came zipping in quite nimbly.
Over 100 years old and still driven
I have not seen an Austin Kimberley in I don't know how long
More Fiats were arriving so I wandered over. Turns out the Fiat club had coincidentally also organised a drive, and same meeting spot. I suggested they come with us but they had other plans.
People were still coming in, lots of Austins.
It was a glorious morning for a drive too
Well this was something
A Jensen interceptor rolled in, but sounded like it was in need of some mechanical assistance, weird clunks.
This 40's Willys was an interesting participant
Even the Saint came to join in
I have an alarm clock that is this tiny Austin van, it's from Wallace and Gromit, who drove one.
The only pretty Volvo
An Alfa joined us, more Fiats arrived for their event.
Still more Fiats coming in!
The organiser gathered us all together. There were two routes: 30 mins and 1hour. We opted for the shorter one, knowing how slow Harry gets in the hills. And then we took off!
And soon were far behind the others, with a 20's Chev as distant company, who also was not great with hills.
We chugged our way along and eventually go to Kalorama! And there were already lots of cars there who had made their own way there. This was a fundraiser for the local Country Fire Authority, volunteer firefighters.
It's the second time we've driven Harry up the Ranges. A slow drive but a lovely one, with all the trees and greenery. This was a great spot for the event.
People from our short rally were arriving, as well as others.
It was a mix of anything and everything
2 2CVS! Outstanding!
Lots of veterans made the drive
Even a Pantera made it
I love that most of these cars were driven to the event in the hills, barely any trailers could be seen.
This HIllman Super Minx was adorable!
Found some VWs
This was a well organised event, with roadways and parking areas clearly marked on the grass.
This Ford Anglia was a cutie
More arrivals!
Look at the fins on that
Couple of Bristols made it
Now that is a classic Mercedes
People were still arriving
Old school fire pump
More of our rally groups arrived
That Lancia made it too
Someone brought a Lamborghini Espada parts bin in the shape of a car along. A lot of parts were laying in the interior.
Must not have been a wedding on on the weekend, so many Rolls Royce cars.
Lots of Bentleys were there too
This beast came in its own custom trailer. The owner kept revving its engine sporadically.
