Now here is the sad part. I had little interest in cars untill the early 70s then had my head stuck well inside the workings of the domestic
Holden and had little interest in the
"Old" car in G'Dads garage - big mistake

Thanks for that explanation Oz. Very interesting.
When I was working for North Sydney Council in the 60's I came acrosss a workshop that had 3 or 4 Bugattis in the yard. Ther owner of the workshop told me he was a specialist who maintained most of the Bugattis in the Sydney area and was very pleased to show me the cars and tell me all about them. I have wanted one ever since but they were, and still are, quite out of my reach.
