Good shots, some nice looking cars there. Plenty of interest it seems!
Is there a small story to go with the pics? How was the run etc.
Cheers

I'm not good at stories, ummm here goes in point form:
* relaxing day although there was the threat of rain, we luckily didn't get any;
* a fair bit of easter traffic, carravans and trailors and stuff, yet we managed to stick together;
* a few heads turning;
* suicidal pushbike riders in the mountians on winding roads;
* little kids waving and giving us the thumbs up;
* packed out petrol stations;
* easy cruise along Maroondah Hwy, Healesville was conjested with traffic but after that it was cool;
* After a short stop we rumbled though the mystic mountians, where it was pretty misty from the weather and then a 'straight' stretch though Narabthnong to Buxton;
* Pulled into the carpark at a hotel in Buxton & parked;
* Went inside for drinks, lunch, hot fireplace, a laugh and a good old chin wag with some new faces and some familiar ones too;

Someone (that attended) put it into a few paragraphs and i'll stick it all on the website. Thanks a lot Rick, helps when I can't make it and other people do my dirty work. 
EDIT: I don't recognize the green sedan (or hatch?), any info on it?

Some nice pics. Thanks for posting. Great to see the Torrys out and about. Some more info would be great. That Green LX is unusual if it is the original paint ie Panama Green?. Still looking for my old Chamios hatch. This one isnt it unless all of the glass has been changed

Torana amore that was fine, thanks. Just wanted a brief overview of the run.
Speaking of packed out servive stations.. You think they would be glad of the trade but on the run the Echuca last year we were not made very welcome at one service station, they considered us a burden to their kitchen/diner lol
