WARNING FOR CAR ENTHUSIAST
GEELONG CAR NUMBER 5
I have had this car for ten years i had built the vehicle to about 70% complete eight years ago but had it stored at families property without seeing it bad move becuase i neglected it by not checking how it was as i have too many projects i went to check on it a month ago only to find the car has been stripped of its gearbox the front panels removed and after a lot of searching i found the motor hidden in in an old shed on property and also the car has been sitting outside so i am back to square one.

I guess thats what happens when you have family fights over the years but enough said i will bring vehicle home and start from scratch it has a tremendious history and is one of my most prized vehicles in my collection.

So if you have a project let this be a leason dont give up on it and put it to one side finish it.
my mistake now i pay for neglecting my dream i hope to have this vehicle restored in two years never too late to finish what you started.
