I also went to this years Dubs by the Pub today & it was a scorcher. So bloody hot but still made for a great day. Plenty of nice cars & a really good showing of Type 3's this year, which for me, was awesome to see. I guess 2012 really is the year of the Type 3 hey? Pictured below is every single Type 3 that I saw, sorry if I missed anyone.

Also I have a few random pics of other cars that caught my attention as well. Even spotted a couple Melburg Luft members cars as well. Saw your beast Nugget, missed you though mate or may have walked right past you without knowing it?

Was great to catch up with a couple of familiar faces as well. Looking forward to the next meet when ever that may be?

It was such a hot day that on the way home had to drop by the bottle shop to get some Corona's for this arvo. Chilling at home now having a couple cold ones.

I use a Canon 7D with a Canon Fisheye Lens EF 15mm 1:2.8. I am not the best photographer (pretty bad actually) so it makes it a bit easier to get some cool shots thankfully.

Cool beans. I wasn't sure if it was a fisheye or just a wide angled lens. Good shots though man 8)

And there looked to be a few ex-Sydney busses there also that I haven't seen in awhile....ie: Shauno's(red rack)bus and Dutchy's old panel.
