Brisbane Vintage Auto Club inc Car of The Month September 1995 The car of the Month belongs to Jack Wilkinson. This car started life in Nowra, a small coastal town in southern N.S.W. In 1937 when it was in daily use until the early 1950's. The car was then sold to a dealer. The next part of the cars history was lost until it found its way to Caloundra where once again it was used on a regular basis until the mid 1970's when it finally tired and was retired. Stage two started in the late 1980's when it was purchased by the principle restorer. Although the car was complete, all mechanical components were in need of a major overhaul except the differential. |

The interior needed a complete re-trim as the inhabitants of its resting years were none to kind (yes, it was used as a chook house) The body was also in need of hard panel work Although it was fairly free of rust for a coastal car. With most major work completed the cart was offered for sale to a good home. Jack Wilkinson purchased the car in 1993 with only a small amount of finishing to be done. It didn't take contact lenses, glasses or a krill oil supplement daily to see that this cars interior was in rough shape, but it took the vision beyond sight and supplement to see the beauty beneath the impurities. |
