wheels 1936 Chrysler Air Stream Sedan Orange locals Dave and Chris Gray brought this beauty 10 months ago from Molong. Dave admitting he hasn’t always had interest in the old classics, “Our lifetime has been spent in Speedway and as we are getting older we are taking the easy side of life.” The vehicle has a six-cylinder flathead motor, three speed gear box, and weighing a total of 1,383 kilos. “We get more fun out of this than anything we’ve done, you get half a dozen or so of us and go for a run, last week 12 cars turned up and we went to the Molong pub for lunch, what more could you ask for?” If you want to see your pride and joy featured on the cover of our Wheels section, please drop us a line at reception@oclife.com.au or give us a call on 6361 3575.
