It was great to see the variety of vehicles that delegates took the opportunity to drive to the Ballarat Delegates’ meeting in August, including this 1920s Dodge six. The Dodge is the VDC Club Car driven to the delegates meeting by a young enthusiast, the car having been donated to the club and restored by club members. It is available for the use of young members and those members without a car. More photo’s on page 18 of this issue.
