Just returned from 3 days in Tasmania. Before the museum pics check this out! A 1941 Chev pickup still in everyday use as the current car and light utility vehicle number plate is attached. Wish I could have taken more pics but it was on private property. Its condition is extraordinary.

Great pictures. Thanks for sharing.  Amazing to see all the American cars in Tasmania.

Great pics Geoff!  I love the Camaro Z-28, T/A and RHD Shelby Mustang of course, but otherwise the Healeys and that cute little Morris Low-light convertible were my favorites.....oh....and let's not forget the little red Austin pedal car!

Great cars Geoff. I especially like the 4 and 6 cylinder Austin Healeys.

What an interesting museum, Geoff. Great pictures of interesting cars on both posts, and that truck. I have always wanted to visit Tasmania. Missed it on my Melbourne to Cairns drive some years ago. I need to add this museum to the list.

The roof design of the Packard coupe is a bit at odds with the rest of the car (seems too modern) but strangely enough it works!

I had to go back to look. Yep; I see what you mean. It is a rear-quartering shot that renders the roof pillar, C, as thick and chunky. From a full-on side shot it probably looks better.
