Vintage cars and a whole lot of chrome at 1973 auto show | RetroFocus

ABC News (Australia) published this video item, entitled “Vintage cars and a whole lot of chrome at 1973 auto show | RetroFocus” – below is their description.

No detail was too small for members of this Hobart car club, with one enthusiast even displaying a chrome-plated wheel brace in the boot of his meticulously restored Ford.

The hot rods on display at the Hobart auto show may have come ‘close to perfection,’ but it was a T Model Ford that caught this ABC reporter’s eye.

This story ran on the ABC’s ‘This Day Tonight’ on 13 June 1973.
