Classics by the Beach: Sunday the 7th of November, 2021

It wasn't my intention to make a feature of Ford hardtops and coupes but, somehow - perhaps subconsciously -  that's what I seem to have done at November 2021's installment of Classics by the Beach.  First I succumbed to this Queensland registered Galaxy's gravitational pull, and soon found myself similarly drawn into two magnificent classic Capris' orbits, too.  After that, it was an easy segue to a very, very imposing Mustang that rounded out the theme.   It wasn't just Ford's two door offerings that had me in their thrall, though; save a couple of Jags - an  S -Type and a Mk I, I've been reliably informed - and an HZ Holden, I seem to have continued to focus almost exclusively on two door cars, be they coupes, roadsters or utes.  Again, probably a subconscious thing that's also reflected in the makeup of the combined UMPH collection, with only one of our five vehicles featuring direct rear passenger access. This Fiat 124 BC was particularly tidy.
