This year’s Mitchelton National Show & Shine at Euroa featured Mansfield Car Club members and local lovebirds Ruby Cumming and Andrew Ick showing off Ruby’s stepfather’s 1959 Rambler Ambassador.

The one-of-a-kind in Australia is a ‘comfy dream ride’, and while Andrew said being behind the wheel was like ‘driving a cloud’, Ruby’s take was different.

“I just love it because it sounds good,” she said.

Iconic to Mansfield, Jeff Watkins’ car is well known around town according to his son-in-law-elect Andrew, but the story on Sunday revolved more around a different vehicle with a different purpose.

The betrothed couple’s impending wedding awaits a deadline: when Jeff completes his 1948 Mk V Jaguar - which was not on display - the couple will get married.

"That's my wedding car," Ruby said, despite the pair having no fixed date.

“And he’s not dragging his feet, in fact that's why he's not here today.”

Jeff missed the Show & Shine to work on the Jag at home, indicating his enthusiasm to give away Ruby's hand.

“He just wants us to hurry up and get married,” she said.
