You've seen my new bike, so I thought I would show you the first Car I used to travel in. I even took it on the beach at times, but it got bogged a lot. It also didn,t tow very well.Great fuel consumption, though.volksy with the lot!.jpg  Bill

I bought a brand new Superbug in 1971 - orange with high back seats. Great little car. No boat, though.

OK, I gotta show you my first vehicle. I was 15 at the time. It's a 1926 Whippet Ute. I had just started my electrical apprenticeship and I purchased it from my Boss for 50.00 Pounds.

You could retire and then some if you still had it, BG, That would be worth Zillions now, If only we knew,

My Triumph Bonnieville, I bought brand new in 1968. $1063-00, I rode it for 17 years, then sold it for $300-00 less than I paid for it in 1968,

I seen one restored exactly the same in a bike shop in Melbourne Last year, $25,000-00 They were asking for it,
