Great day. - more than 550 cars in attendance, several rock n roll stages playing live music, heaps of stalls and food, not too mention the location. Bit hot (32) and just about every winning car was a hot rod,but a fantastic day. Surprising only about 12-15 Mustangs. Mainly Chevs, hot rods, Fords, Buicks, Plymouths and Cadillacs.

I was up there today. What a big event, with a huge crowd! Not surprising the hot rods took the trophies, some were very stunning. Some talented guys out there in the rod community. Dave, I had a good look for your noggin but could see you. To many people!!!
Cheers

I also made the trip,up today, what a great event and location, the crowd was huge, if it gets any bigger they will need to either close off more streets, or find another location.

Dino's comments regarding the hot rods was spot on, some of those cars are seriously good, a lot of attention and fabrication, I was surprised to see so many what you would call barn find cars, rodded just like they would have been back in the 50 or 60's, and the number of younger people involved, what a great day, and a great event.
