Riley Cars - Custodians from the Riley Club of Victoria - Documentary Film

[@iliketomoveit5999]

Ah, what a splendid trip down memory lane this video is! It warms my heart to see the Riley Motor Club of Victoria celebrating its 65th year with such grandeur. I've been a devoted Riley enthusiast since my childhood in Germany, and watching this Gala Day at Bellevue Orchid brought back cherished memories of my own Riley adventures. I vividly recall a summer day in '55 when my family embarked on a cross-country journey in our trusty Riley Pathfinder. The wind in my hair, the purr of the engine... those were the days. The camaraderie among fellow Riley lovers transcends borders, and events like these evoke a deep sense of nostalgia. Here's to the timeless joy of Riley motoring! Cheers from Germany!

Great cars, great people! I well remember the first meeting at Harry Salter's "Burden Master Trailers" in High Street Armadale in 1958 and remembered some old faces. Good to see you Jim Runciman but I think you may have confused Harold Barras with Arthur Bruce in the Pathfinder and horse rider incident. All the best to the club from Mike Ide

LOVLEY TO SEE THESE OLD RILEYS AS OUTSTANDING CARS. WHAT I CANNOT FIND ANYWHERE PREHAPS NONE SURVIVED WAS THE RILEY MONACO ABOUT 1936. AN OUTSTANDING CAR. THIS HAD A DYNOSTART STICKING OUT FROM THE FRONT OF BELOW THE RADIATOR. CHROME PLARED AND IT MADE A WHIRING SOUND.. IT HAD A PRE SELECTOR GEARBOX THEY CHANGED WHEN ONE SELECTED A GEAR AND ONLY THEN WHEN ONE PRESSED THE CLUTCH. I THING IT HAD A FLUID FLYWHEEL.. PREHAPS THIS FACT CAUSED NONE TO SURVIVE AS REPAIRS VERY DIFFICULT. THIS WAS A FOUR SEATER FOUR DOOR SALOON. IT HAD A BOOT AT REAR AS A NORMAL REAR CONFIGURATION. CAN YOU HELP OVER THIS PROBLEM. DID THEY NOT MAKE MANY OR DID ONLY A FEW SURVIVE WWII. I RESIDE IN ENGLAND AND WE HAD ONE AFTER WWII FOR MANY YEARS. ONLY CHANGED IT BECAUSE WE NEEDED A LARGER CAR FOR THE FAMILY. REPLACEMENT. A HUDSON 1939 CHEVROLET ENGINE A FIVE SEATER.
