This has probably been my favourite thread on here......brought back a lot of memories.
I was 12 years old when I watched the start [at Bondi] of the first Redex Trial, in 1953. Ken Tubman won, but the thing I remember most was a car I'd
never seen before...a Porsche 356.
My best wishes to Norma.
Cheers, Greg
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!
