1935 Ford Phaeton

Went to Adelaide relly rounding for the weekend and went cruising to Mt Barker in this.




And if anyone wants reference pics there's also a spare rolling chassis...

And no Bryce, I did not have anything to do with the colour of the rims or pinstripe. That's the way it left the factory.

Very nice! Whose is it? Are you in the will?

It's in the care of Mrs z's cousin's other half.
She's been banned from inheriting any vehicles following her comments regarding her Uncles '23 Chevy sedan, flames and fat tyres...

Apart from a '39 gearbox the Phaeton is completely stock down to 6v sparks, no seat belts and mechanical brakes.
Stopping is leisurely and takes advance planning. Something the learner in front didn't appreciate when she stopped at a clear roundabout.
I've never seen anyone brake, change down, hoot, swear and pray with such speed before.
The spare chassis has juice brakes from a later model and I appreciate why.

you lucky man! well I was cruising in a jacked up landcruiser with a bench seat and 2 other people, AND a laser with 4 other people inc. 3 big fellas in the back, i bet we looked cool with the back all low... and the bannanas in pyjamas theme song blasting
