Do not watch this

Yes, not worth shedding any tears over these rusted out relics, they're a dime a dozen in Victoria. It's a familiar story - they've been sitting out in high rainfall Gippsland weather for decades, as part of a farmer's lifetime accumulation of assorted vehicles and junk which is now left to his elderly wife to dispose of somehow in order to sell the property. Often in these situations we don't get a look in as the family simply calls in the scrappy - there's no financial incentive to advertise and have collectors traipsing around the joint and haggling over scrap value. I'll post some vehicle pics in due course, meanwhile here's a few of the general scene.

This very complete Humber would have been in excellent condition if shedded. It's now going to Seymour where it will receive a complete body transplant! I'm informed there were only 150 of these imported to Australia, of which only a handful survive today. They're a nice looking unit but a little over-engineered for my CMP tastes!

Think I know of one under pine trees in Somerville in a very poor state too!
