    sydney morning Herald - Age Story on our restoration for valentines day

    Hi all this article will go into the Sydney morning Herald this Friday, and "The Age" on thursday. It is a story about couples doing up Sandmans, and the romance of it all

    They came and took some photos today, and a journalist from the Herald spoke to me last Friday, they can't let me proof read it so who knows what they will say...I have attached a couple of the pics they may use..

    Haha if those pictures we're any more kick ass, it'd make hit girl look like an amateur...

    I too love how Rodney dressed up for the occasion. Nothing better than good old fashion country work clothes!

    Make sure you post the full article when it comes out!

    I said it enough so they should, and about the fact people restoring vans can get a lot out of the forum..I also asked them to add a note at the end to see if the guy who bought our original van would come forth...sadly I think it was written off, but he may have the ute which most of it went into still....grasping at straws I realize...
