Hi
While searching for a model Jowett Javelin I came across your website. My father had a Jowett here (in Melbourne Australia) for a number of years, bought as the family car early 1950's. Being an Englishman his cars were always British, apart from a Fiat 1500cc sedan in the 70's- I don't know what was behind that one.
Your site has brought back many memories of the Jowett time- many thanks.

Always good to hear from 'down under'. I hope the Administrator will put you in touch with the Australian club?
It doesn't matter that you may not have a Jowett. Club members always like to hear from people with an interesting Jowett story to tell.
Who knows, you may even be persuaded to join the club - and maybe even acquire a Jowett to 'play' with?
Either way, yoyr post was read with interest.

Hands across the ocean and all that!
