    Oh OK, I don't do the facebook thing and only occasionally go onto Instragram.
    Here's another to add to the pile of covers, that are going feral?? Tony and Pat will get a real kick out of this one!

  2. Ha ha I like that "going feral" , going viral sounds like something you need to see the doctor about.

    You may be right FB. As the editor and chief of 'The Magazine Of The Mind' publishing company maybe I need to see a doctor ( a shrink?? ).
    Anyhow here's a new cover featuring'The Macalister Roadster'. I know Judy and Wayne will get a kick out of this if they see it.

    Geoff that's a special one, never thought I'd make it to a cover with Tony let alone in 1951 thanks for doing that. The Aussie covers are really cool.

    Here's one that will probably get a few likes. God knows people seldom comment. Is that a sign of the times in which we live and all the technology we live with?
    Thankyou Garyd, yeah it's a bit of a down and dirty cover that one. I like the feel of both those roadsters.

    Love the roadster cover mate

    Geoff I was wondering today, what's the longest trip you've been on with your coupe?

    Great bunch of covers Geoff. I love the one with Tony and Pat's roadsters. Hope all is well down Mexico way.

    Thankyou for the replies.
    Hi Jude and Wayne. My pleasure on doing the cover. I don't know that the roadster would be easy to use with a chop. But it does look good. I lowered the headlights also.
    Pat. I drove the 5W to Perth Christmas '89. Was away for 2 months and did around 7000 miles. On my return about 7 weeks later it made it's first trip to Lake Gairdner. The longest trip so far in the 3W is around 1000 k's.
    Chad all is well here. Although today was a sad one for Margaret and I. We had to have our dog ( Doby ) put to sleep.
    Anyhow here's a cover that will make us all smile and dream.

    Thankyou guys on your thoughts about our little dog. When they go they leave a big hole in one's life. We still have our cat ( Larry ) and of course Gussy.
    Tom thankyou for those images. I have put them in the ever expanding file of images for future use, in the deep dark archives at 'The Magazine Of The Mind Publishing Company'.

    Thankyou guys for your replies and the kind thoughts regarding our recent lose.
    Here is a new cover I just did. Another pictorial debate on the subject, 'To Chop or Not To Chop?'.

    Sorry to hear about your hound Geoff, it is sad to see them go. Frustrated with a bad back so before I play with some models today, I thought I'd check your latest works. Keep them going.

    Had a different day yesterday. My niece ( Nikki Tisdale ) is raising money for cancer research ( nearly a year ago she lost her dad to prostate cancer). Later in the year she hopes to go on a charity bike ride from Mount Hotham ( here in Victoria ) to Hobart in Tasmania ( Tour De Cure Australia ). So yesterday we had a very successful sausgae sizzle at Bunnings in Hoppers Crossing. People are so generous and supportive. I think nearly all of us are affected by cancer in some way. Nikki did the bulk of the orgnising, Bunnings supply the BBQ, Gas, awning and venue ( free of charge ). So Nikki, my other niece Zoe, their mum Pat ( my older sister, they both flew over from Perth ), Nikki's friend Max ( the head BBQ cook ), my younger sister Margaret and myself had a most enjoyable day catering to passing customers.
    The bonus for me was Pat brought over my 2 dirt track front tyres I had bought in Perth a couple of years ago.
    Thanks for your reply Chad. Sorry to hear about the back. Take care lifting those plastic sidevalves.
    So here's a new cover. I really like the T roadster.

    That last cover begs to ask the question asked on this cover. I could live with this 3W either shown on this cover.

    Great work on the charity BBQ Geoff, Cancer does seem to affect everyone in some way be it family or friend, I had a better day today, actually out in the garage out of frustration, started to restore the '40 wheel for the coupe. I must be getting old as I prefer the unchopped version on the cover which is kind of strange as I always liked chopped 3 windows, 5 windows either way.
