Warrnambool and District Historical Vehicle Club member Ian Rees takes Father John Murphy for a spin in his 1963 Rambler Classic during the club’s visit to Mercy Place nursing home last week.
Some of the vehicles are 85 years old and still going strong, just like some of their passengers.
Eight cars including a six-door Rambler limousine ferried 17 elderly residents around rural district roads for an enjoyable outing in autumn sunshine.
“It is part of our community work,” club member Ian Rees told The Standard.
“We also include visits to Gillin Park and Lyndoch.
“Residents enjoy the outings and appreciate the drives.”
