~ Ellie is Live ~


After months of waiting Ellie has taken her maiden voyage today. She was officially registered at 9:30am this morning and then it was straight off to the shop for a photo shoot for Australian Home Beautiful magazine. Phew. It's all done. I am so glad to finally have her on the road. She drives like a dream and I love her! Wish I could take you all for a spin.
This really is a Happy Monday xxx

    Hi Simone,
    I have 'lovely old car envy', Ellie looks so great! I would love to own a vw bus.
    Also, I love what you did with your old sofa in the studio, very inspiring and the pictures are very clear to follow. Enjoy your good Monday!

    Where did you get Ellie worked on? I have alot of trouble finding the right mechanic to work on my Betty (1958 FC Holden) as she is older then most the mechanics. All the good ones i have used keep retiring on me! :(
    Will you be taking her to the Cooly Rocks festival this weekend?

    Hi Simone, Funny hubby and I spotted a beaut vintage car like yours in Darwin while on holidays last week. I told him you have one and he is impressed ;) We were wondering how its repairs were going. Now we know!
    Happy Travels to you all,
