Made a slideshow of some of the pix we took at this excellent museum in South Australia (thanks Rusty & MelWA for suggesting it)

Quite a bit of interesting info in the placards but you might have to pause the video to read some of them

Most entertaining

Good to see a DMC in such fine condition.

Now, can someone please explain why you Oz guys would think the 1952 "Edith" looks like a "pregnant roller skate" (03:33) 

[Dazzler]

Yeah I was impressed to see the DeLorean too 

Don't know if you picked it up (You don't miss much ) but most of the cars could have done with some AutoGlym or Meguirs ... but was only A$9 each to get in so can't really complain...

a few bucks worth of history in that museum. most of them looked original and UN restored.

There were a lot of other cars and bikes I didn't take photos of as well ... most have been restored but to original rather than modified condition... I think Trish was as impressed as I was.. She could relate to more of the early cars than I could

the good old days of motoring.

Nice slideshow, Daz....

Reminded me of what I got to see last year when I was there. It was a very rushed tour at the time as I was only over in Adelaide for a weekend to attend a wedding. Been there a few times previously over the years though.  First time was in 1984 I think, so the place has changed a bit since then.

Excellent, looks as good a museum as the one we went around last year

Birdwood, that's just a few ks away from us, been there a few years with our son, nice cars, love the restored ones and that car sliced in half...

Birdwood brings back some fond memories. In 1989 I drove my newly restored 1920 Model T Ford across to Adelaide for a week long T Model Rally around SA. At the end we went on the Bay to Birdwood Rally. A really great time. Drove back home via Mildura & Bendigo. If you did a trip like that, with LOTS of hills, in a car that developed max power of 20 bhp @ 1600 rpm & a 2 speed epicyclic gearbox, you would never, never whinge about the power of your petrol i30 on hills!  Top speed of about 65 - 70 k on the flat & passed by bicycles on hills. A really great  & memorable trip.

Well I wish I could meet you guys and have a direct chat, typing can sometimes look different.

No worries Alin I'm glad you understand (we would like to see your video) 

Cheers Dazz. Will be in the videos section sometime tonight

This one seems bigger than museum located in Vyborg town and it stores some really old cars I see.
I wouldn't mind visiting this museum when I have done with aviation one if I happen to get to Australia one day.
