That 1930s car-like grille can only mean Globe Swift! One of only two in Australia, this one was imported in 1993 and registered VH-BYB(3) on 23 February that year. Manufactured in 1946, it was originally N78086 before going to Canada in 1982 and becoming C-FBEB. Seen here at the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's Chippie Rally.
