Driving In My Car: Finding the Car of Your Dreams

Hello, my name is Andy. I live alone in a small town in central Australia. My life can be pretty mundane. I work in an office pushing paper 5 days a week, but at the weekend, I like to hit the road. I recently bought the car of my dreams, an imported 1958 Cadillac. It needs a lot of work, but I can't wait to get it on the road. I found myself feeling a little lonely so I joined a car enthusiast group. I meet with the guys once a week and we exchange stories of our latest road trips, maintenance tips and other auto advice. It is a really close-knit community. I decided to start a blog so I could reach online auto enthusiasts.
