Just joined the forum, from Australia, and a proud (?) owner of a 1935 Riley Falcon, amongst other stuff.

Hello Nick
Not sure how many are in Australia in total, but there are only two with the opening rear window. This is a very optional extra from new, and very effective in our weather for through flow ventilation without becoming windblown.
With the preselector gearbox and excellent brakes it is a very useable car, even in modern traffic.

Great photos Matthew, i bet you create some interest as you are driving round
Over here the rear windows wouldn't be opened that often

Just got to say......SWEET.
Very nice and very envious, both of the car and the sunshine too.
Though I don't envy you boys the spiders and other creepy crawlies you have over there

Yes, the Queensland winter is the best place to be, summer can be a little tropical.
