From The South East Queensland Correspondent: a VG Valiant Wayfarer

Image
This   Valiant Wayfarer  - photographed by our South East Queensland Correspondent, PeteR - looks properly apocalypse-proof!   It’s an all-steel mobile, with the only plastics being its park, indicator and brake light lenses, plus some interior trim.  They don’t make ‘em like that anymore !  Hailing from 1970, it looks to be in totally original condition, wearing its battle scars without pretence.   Don’t go thinking it’s “patinated”; this is a genuine Aussie ute and that’s not a term we associate with our iconic workhorses!   U M P H (Uppermiddlepetrolhead.blogspot.com.au) Photos by PeteR,  https://aureliatheitalianproject.blogspot.com/ .
