I put this up this morning from the second floor bedroom. The bottom of the ANF is sitting a foot off the balcony.







Happy Australia Day Everyone!

Default Another Compact Fairlane Australia Day

Spent today with the Club at our 4th Annual Australia Day Social Day at Margate, in Queensland. It was a scorcher, 34 degrees, but the company was unsurpassed, LOL!



There were another three Compact with us, a red '64, but parking spots next to ours weren't available, and they were parked further up out of the pic (sorry guys!).

A great day, I didn't get sunburned, and the car went like a dream (as she always does). Happy Australia Day to you all!

MM
