Car TORO / BST – ‘Wild Safari’ (2019)

Theme: Wild Safari

Car: 1937 Buick Sedan

Crew: Ken Woods, Richard Walne, Kevin O’Brien, Ian King, Robert Rein, Jamie Bergen, Charlie O’Brien

Bio: A lot happened 82 years ago in 1937. Bradman’s team retained the Ashes.

Lindsay Fox, Dawn Fraser and Kerry Packer were born.

Norwood topped the home and away table, but Port beat South by 25 points in the GF (low point of the year) in front of 35,000 people.

Amelia Earhart went missing. Daffy Duck made his debut. Toyota was founded.

Joseph Lyons was our PM, Hitler was in Germany, FDR in the US and Stanley Baldwin in the UK.

And………. our Buick rolled off Holden’s

assembly line………. body number 161 and into Australian motoring lore.

So, after lots of Bashes and mishaps with much appreciated assistance from the marvellous MW’s, she is back on the track with old Bashers Kevin, Richard, Hollywood, Robert and Ken and with two great new blokes – Australia’s best panel

beater Rob and the Internationally famous Jamison Bergen. (Jamie when in Oz).

See you on the track, probably not near the front and with a zero care factor.
