Gold mate,recently lost one of our dogs.

About all the old Trumpies were good for - board stands. It's a very good looking board stand though.

but thats a new trumpy. 
Sorry. Missed it. Much to my shame. I am currently bikeless and one of the new Bonnevilles is right up my list. Not the T100, though. I rode one of them and that big front wheel sucked on turn ins.
Alas, my budget will only stretch to a Suzuki 650 Verado this time next year.
The old man rode a matchless 500 down to coast from brissy when he was a clubbie of southport.
I think it was a matchless

Second bike was a SR500. Absolute classic. Great torque spread. Only ballsed the kick a couple of times in the few years I owned it. I reckon that kick back could break your leg if you were unlucky.

It was unreal a lot of traffic and that was just getting there.
I could have paddled out but I wasn't as desperate as some.

Bastard. I was looking forward to some coffee and food
I may be hooking up with a legend tomorrow I ask him if its ok for one more
Combis really were good surf wagons. That rear engine meant there was a fair bit of weight on the rear wheels and they were surprisingly good in soft stuff. 25 years ago we used to flog a mates Combi into Derrs. Anyone who remembers the dunes knows that was no mean feat. It was set up as a camper so once there we could make a day of it and were the cool kids having coffee and sangas in comfort and shade in between the waves.
That one looks well loved, Macaha. And, why I like to see all the old cars looking pristine again, I also like to see them looking like the get used for their intended purpose. I don't think anyone would drive a Combi in 2015 like my mates used to get driven. It was absolutely immaculate and got sold in 1996 for $6500.
Oh let me know. It would be good to be in a car after a week at home
