Emerald is only an hour or so out of Melbourne. If you can make it there from Mackay in 4 hrs or so, you are Superman!::

Saturday 1st-Monday 3rd – All Ford Affair, Emerald – Event of Interest
The Falcon GT Owners Club (QLD) & Newhaven Ford invites us to the All Ford Affair. Located at Newhaven Ford, Gregory Hwy, Emerald.

just got back from the all ford day in Emerald,

i found it to be a poor turn out for Mustangs and there was no sign of the club banner anywhere?.
and no one was wearing club t-shirts?.
was looking at joining up at the event, if there are no club runs up this way seems like a waste of money this far north!!

Hey guys,
Sorry been off line a bit lately. I took the drive out from Biloela and thought it wasn't too bad of an event. Suppose need to remember what it was built from which was a Ford GT car event, which there were plenty of.
Also there was a crap load of motor sport event on this weekend with the V8's running at Ipswich, the Mustang car club of Quensland had a run to Montville, I think there was a Hot Rods run in Hervey Bay and the speedway state titles were on in Rocky. So can understand why the numbers may be down.
For the mustang side of things there were a few of the years shown, a couple being;
68GT500KR
08 Shelby
GT500
70 Mach1
69 Mach 1
65 GT350
07 GT
66 Coupe

I have pasted a couple of pictures in the attached link.





Cheers,
            Pauno

yes there was a few mustangs there but no mustang owners club banners,which would of been a good idea and a great chance to get new members.
