Old Cars Bikes and Coffee

Numbers were down at the December OCBC because of the bad weather, but certainly rebounded with a vengeance at the January event, which I thought would also be a quiet one. Probably close to 100 cars turned out in January – once again a huge variety, from two veterans right through to modern cars, and everything in between. It was so good to see a large number of vintage-era vehicles there too. Making its first outing at the clubrooms and attracting lots of admiration was the magnificent and newly restored 1920’s Fiat 510S Tourer that Phil Jeeves has just completed – a truly stunning car and restoration. Phil and Marietta also had this car at the Little River picnic two weeks earlier, which was its first long-distance run and where it also attracted a huge amount of attention. There was also a newly restored early Ford V8 roadster at OCBC which was immaculately done, but I’m not sure who it belonged to – I will no doubt find out though. Great to see these cars out and being displayed like that.

February’s OCBC is on Sunday 19th , perhaps a good outing to prepare your car or bike for the Annual Rally the following weekend?

Have a good month everyone.
