Ian, is Foster's as popular down under as the advertising in the states leads us to believe?  I think it's a pretty good beer, but then I'm hardly a connoisseur.

Hey "GearDrivenSteam"  Do you know if Greenway does anything in G-scale?  They have some great looking HO stuff but I didn't see any mention about Garden Scale.

William sorry i forgot about you, no it isn't thick, Aussie beer is quite light more like a lager but very strong up to 6.5 %. Our brewers nearly all came from germany and it is quite like German beer as are our white wines.

Yes mate it is good to taste, it comes in a green 375 mm can and we drink it nearly with ice floating in it. and the ripples of condensation that run down the side of the can are a joy to look at.

No Robert no sidelong looks i think many other Sydney siders drink VB as well it is a very good drop. I do not live in Sydney anymore I live in Queensland where they drink a terible brew called "XXXX" Port Macquarie is about halfway between the Sunshine Coast and Sydney (very roughly)

I am down in Sydney now visiting family and freinds for Christmas and New year. I have pickid up a a heapp of sleepers (ties) and am about to pick up 75 metres of rail while iam here and i will take them back to Queensland with me. 2 Jan 2007

Ian, yes it is good taste to me. Nice and thick, unlike mass produced beers. But I quit drinking.

I bet you got some sideways looks.

Thank you William for that information, is it any good to drink?

You know i went int a bar in a place called Port Macquarie on my way down here for Christmas and ordered a schooner of VB. You would have to be an Australian to underrstand what a contrast this is. To order a Schooner you would have to be from Sydney; VB stands for Victoria Bitter and it is a Melbourne beer. There has alwayd been a lot of animosity between Sydney and Melbourne going back a hundred years; hence the contradiction.

Since you are looking for something that would be directed toward a specific market, probably your only avenue of possible success is to talk to the brewery and see if they have a car in their "collector" series.  Else your only other option would be to get a set of decals from them and paint your own.
