Family Ties: Sedan Dip to Holland Park

A few more pics shaken out of our family trees:

First is a photo of the Peut family at Sedan Dip, Far North Queensland. Dan's father, Geoff is the one the white flares. Providing the seating is an HQ Statesman. Seriously hot car. Not sure of the date, but we're tipping late 70's.


A few thousand miles away and a couple of years later, my impending birth was about to cause the sale of my father's Morgan Plus 8. He bought the Plus 8 off the showroom floor at Earl's Court when he lived in London and brought it over when he returned to Australia. It's not my cup of tea, but I'm assured that an ash frame and all-alloy body meant that the 3.5 litre Rover V8 made it quite a weapon.


Plenty more to come over the next few days, but we still want to see your family and their cars!
