    Mid Winter Wander

    This run left from Glendale,Newcastle this morning, to go to the Hunter Valley Gardens.
    It allegedly had about 300+ cars there and was expected to get up to 800 when they arrived at their destination.
    I didn't go on the run but i took some pics there.
    The Blue HJ is also a Sandman.

    Excellent buy. If it's a 74 model it may even be a Sandman.... otherwise it's a perfect candidade for a replica.

    My van was also there but i forgot to take a pic of it.
    I'm sure there would be no problem with you going Jennie as there were clubs of all types plus independant vehicle owners.

    Sounds like a plan, we can go on the drive, pull up at a vineyard, drink wine, then sleep in our vans until we sobar up.....
