That lion pic is a cracker.
What bright spark thought painting the car in zebra stripes would be a good idea. Missing headlight rim, dented roof, bent overriders etc. Looks like it may have been mistaken for the real thing.
Makes you realise how big those kitties are.
Here's a carpark full of interesting cars.

What a magnificent photo Alex ... That is Chadstone Shopping Centre (South-east of Melbourne) in the early 60's just after it opened ...taken from the roof of Myers ... I reckon I can see my Dad's two-tone blue FJ about 2/3rds along the 3rd row from the left ... wow that really brings it back !!!
When I was a young man I spent most of my money on cars , beer and women (in that order) ... the rest ... I just wasted !

My Mum lives a 100 metre walk from that picture in a house built in 1950. Thought it was chadstone when I saw it and she did as well. It is a cracker to quote Alex and I have it as my screen saver as well!

Finally a period correct photo of my old home town with FC's. It is outside the "new" Woolworths. It actually burnt down early 70's and rebuilt. Still there today. This shot was taken sometime between 64-67. Shamelessly pilfered from Facebook under Isa Group.

the cars that can been seen aboard the trail are on the west coast of tassy Rosebery to Burnie , as there was no road, the murchinson highway from the coast through tullah to Rosebury didnt open till 1962, the loco pulling them is one of two Dubbs locos built in Scotland in the 1890s one can be viewed at the west coast mining museum at Zeehan, the other fully restored at the Don river rail museum at Devonport, highly recommend you visit both when you are over here ,especially the mining museum at Zeehan, allow yourself plenty of time lots to look at...........
