Adelaide - Bendigo

Post by PHAT BUG »

So my siss asked if I could look after their '61 for a while as they're moving interstate.
Who am I to say no, Problem was that it was in Adaelaide and I'm in Bendigo.

So ROADTRIP!!

Me and my 7yr old Brodie got over there Saturday night and yesterday released the Kombi from the tomb thats kept her for the last 18 months.....

Took a while to get her to fire up, but once she did and I took her for a spin to get some fresh fuel, she was running bloody awesome!! (2.1 stroker)

So a quick clean up and get an early night,
We left at 6am this morning and hit the road, first stop was Tailem Bend for Breaky.......

After the big feed the co-pilot was useless....

All in all sweet drive, 648km's and the split never had a hiccup. Love this thing 8)
