Cars & Motorbikes I had been wondering what these roof numbers were for years!

    Driving past this house regularly I couldn’t work out why there was numbers on the main roofs. ‘12’ and ‘17’. You can’t see in the picture but the carport has the Ford logo on the roof. Thankfully my mind was put to rest when I drove past recently and asked my kids if they could work it out. My son informed me that ‘17’ was Dick Johnson’s racing number and ‘12’ is Fabian Coulthard. Geez, all these years wondering!! BC5AA878-C0AA-4B1A-A52D-8F9E7A1DE2A1.jpeg

    @wylie Likes to make a statement I guess? Three flag poles with Aussie Flag, All Blacks and Ford also. Quite creative with building materials. The house often changes! D142E579-9278-4133-9223-FEA7B9DDCBCC.png

    Took me a long time to understand also @wylie, hehe. Thought being a corner block maybe two house numbers but they were both long streets. Helicopter landing pad in the background..there had to be a logical reason!
