I remember you from a long time ago. If I recall, there were some Aussie rules which allowed you to import as an antique and license as such.
It is great to hear from you.
I bet the Newell generated some interest in Oz.

Welcome Mate! Thats really cool you have a Newell in the land down under. I sold an airplane to an Azzie a few years back he flew over here to the US and was amazed at all the caravans, dually trucks, and flat bed trailers. Said they are very few in Australia because they had to be converted to right hand drive. Every time we would go someplace he would get to the drivers side and realize its different here.
