Thanks guys for coming up; made a regular 'try to sell a car' sort of trip into a Bellett cruise!
The GTR has a bit of a miss somewhere there, but seems at its happiest under full throttle with the tacho flying towards 6000rpm!
It SEEMED to go OK aside from the odd stutter, so hopefully this will bode well for the planned run from Farmer's to Merimbula.
Alas Bruno's blue Bellett GT won't be making an appearance at Merimbula (nor will Bruno) but he will be there with bells on in 2013 in rAdelaide!
Top shot whoever took the photo of the GTR on the highway; action shots are always the best!

Claws will be kept very busy doing Bellett re-trims!!
and the Fiat went to its new home in Gawler tonight.
you may have met the new owner,Duane, as he sells Historic Motoring publications.
happy it went to a real good home and will be restored

So I found out today Oz, Keith gave me a call. He's no midget...did he sit in it first? Good news it went to a sympathetic home...Dave probably would have just stuck it on his hat rack and worn it on Sundays.

I love a LOT of cars... and that Fiat was easy to love.... but unless it's got ISUZU on it, it doesn't fit in my collection (Lexus and Holden dailies are exempt).
