4 more Syncros in one w/end, not bad going ! The beauty is of course that every single one is different from the next never two the same. We will never run out of looking (eyeballing for Ken), comparing, evaluating and so on. Let's face it, it's a VERY special past time, one I wouldn't want to miss..............

Welcome Steve,It has been twelve months to the day you passed me on the Hume in a T5 towing a Kombi,whilst I driving my Syncro.(I believe my bus is an ex customer of yours).

Merry Christmas from the Croft family.

Ben,
No, actually. Australia is a rather big place and our members are allover it. It is unlikely that many of our younger members would know of the Muller brothers at all so this was just a brief introduction.
Due to your underprivileged education in the Queen’s English, you are excused the odd lapse.

Les,
Oz is so big that a rather young galpal of mine watch in amazement when I showed her that recent video of a Syncro charging up a hill. She remarked that she thought Australia was all semi-arid and full of kangaroos and was surprised to see greenery in the video. To which I remark that though I have never had occasion to make it to Oz yet, I was quite sure there would be the occasional oasis and oil drilling rigs amid the roaming camels if she would just look hard enough.;-)

Hey BenT,if you ever make it down here,watch out for those oasis that your yarnen about.You will have to fight off the roos and koalas so you can wet your whistle.Be very careful as you approach the waters edge.Funnel web spiders and red belly black snakes are known to inhabit these areas.
As you sip from the billabong be aware of salt water crocs,they can scare the shit out of ya.
If the coast looks clear and you decide to take a dip,throw a bush pig carcass in first.This is the best way to find out if there is any Sharks around.
Why dont you drop us a line?Theres plenty of prawns on the bar-b for all of youz.No more VB for you,Oprah drunk it all.
Time to hit the frog and toad.Got to go let the emus out into the next paddock,theres a bloody big Goanna stirrin them up.
Hoo roo.

Didn't sound much like the Queen's English to me.

> Yes,thank god for Hollywood.Otherwise we would no nothing about the US either.Mel Gibson was normal when he drove a Falcon and played in the sand.Mel introduced the US to the REAL OZ. Mad Max was afterall, an Australian production. I used to drive a '64 Falcon as a 13 year old (yes!) in Asia. Fast forward 27 years later and my kid is driving a '66 Falcon at age 15 in Nebraska (where the ex moved).

Hi Steve, I once visited your garage quite a long time ago and maybe you can remember a Thai guy came there with Steve Moran and Murrey ;-)
I heard you got married and I like to say congratulation! hope it's not too late to say that cos I never seen you pop up in DSK (or maybe I missed that) ;-)
Regards,
Pat
