TANK FAIRLANE, the latest addition to the shed

This is the latest vehicle to grace my life.

Purchased after a lot of pondering. Which is kind of odd for me, usually buying a car is a passion decision, one made quickly with the heart and not the head. Yet this time the head seemed to be making the most noise. Usually I have always needed to sell one car to buy another (probably like most people) but this time I had the $... Just wasn't certain that now was the time to spend it!

After a lot of reading lately about doom and gloom, the economy and the global oil supply I felt this time i had to make a head decision, would I invest in becoming more self suficient or blow it on a car that frankly is a want not a need?

After a blast down the road in a decidedly not cool 2012 Ford ute with rockabilly blasting, the heart won. I just pictured flying down the road windows down, "Paramatta hot rod man'' playing loud and just knew i wanted this spaceship on wheels, to hell with peak oil...this baby will burn a barrel of crude oil every tank!

so here it is:


It really should be no surprise to myself...I have been car mad since my teens and have seldom been without some sort of  'classic' car in my life.
