Australia calling...

Whilst our Australian correspondent contemplates his next shrimp from the barbi we contemplate this '54 oval in Reed green running a 2.2 motor with Weber 48IDA's, 8" narrowed beam and OG sprintstars. An amazingly original and patina'd car with a whole host of genuine period accessories incl. Albert mirrors, centre mount aerial, flying VW hood emblem, venetian blind, Bambus shelf. We hope to see this onboard soon.
