Random # 249: VW Type 3 Wagon

I concede that this Type 3 wagon, photographed under Brisbane's Story Bridge, Queensland, isn't the finest example I've ever seen.  However, it was still pretty damned cool, sitting on slightly lowered suspension and featuring some very stylish - and, might I add, tastefully understated - alloy wheels.  The only thing that really ruined it was the work of the Brisbane City Council and their parking compliance wallahs!

Random # 248: Lost Bean 1964 Kombi Coffee Van

It's a classic split-screen Kombi and a coffee van!  A good coffee van at that!  Too bad it's a regular fixture on Brisbane's South Bank because, if it were Hobart-based, I think I'd be a regular visitor.   U M P H (uppermiddlepetrolhead.blogspot.com.au.) All iPhone images.

Readers' Photos # 30: Early Ford F-Truck

Classic car fans looking for a good feed could do worse than to check out this, the latest - and easily the most stylish - food van to hit the Hobart scene since, well ... forever!  Transits and old Bedfords are ok but they don't hold a candle to Ty's fabulous F and its matching retro-caravan / mobile kitchen.  I'm also credibly informed that Ty is a wizard cook!  Coming to a public space near you soon!
