Don't know if you will get this, rain was really heavy in Toowoomba and I was unsure if the event would go on, not sure if I will make it, will see what the weather looks like in the morning. Is the event running rain, hail or shine? Ted.

Crikey, Looks like a pair of good windscreen wipers still ok. Lucky boy to walk away from that, what a shame to have a Ho end that way.

Sad to see a car, any car end up like that. Now, shall I dare to start .... is that really a genuine Ho ... the paint isn't original, as evidenced by the primer under the splitting paint on the roof does anyone kow the correct body numbers for Ho's ? Cheers Rob An open mind is required, enjoy

That's really cool information. Many thanks for that. Why oh, why aren't Bellett's as well documented ? Still that's part of what makes them special. Cheers Rob
