I went. It was good to see some classic muscle from the old days. It was held in the car park of the Willow Park Tavern on Tremaine Ave. It was shifted from the Railway Land location due to the amount of rain Palmerston got overnight. I had nothing to do with the running of the show and am just speaking from a local attendee's point of view. The Railway Land is a popular location to hold low key car shows but has always been utter crap if it is wet. I don't know how it came about that the guy organising it got the use of the Willow's carpark, but yeah - good call! I didn't see many people there but I'd say the weather kept them away and the fact that most would have envisioned a water logged Railway Land. Good on the guys who showed their rides and good on the guy who organised it! A dreary day made better by some cool old Valiants, Fords and Holdens! I hope it occurs again next year and for the promotor . mate, if you are reading this - I know you have something to do with the local Ford Club . if you do this again - hook up with the local MoPar and Holden Clubs and your numbers will soar. Doing it in a pub carpark again wouldn't be a bad idea either.

There's been a thread on here for ages! There was an open day of some sort at Southwoods, for car buffs. Passed heaps between Welly and Para around 3pm.

Cheers mate, it was a very last minute decision to hold it at the pub but was definatly the right call with the amount of rain we had! Considering the terrible weather and the fact 7 clubs were unable to make it due to the weather we still had 48 cars turn up which was a great turnout. We didnt quite make as much for Starship as we had hoped but we(Manawatu FORD club) have donated to them from our club account. Thanks to all those dedicated people that braved the rain and made it a fantastic day and congratulations to those that won awards on the day. We are currently planning the next All Aussie car day which will be bigger and better and hopefully this time around the weather gods will be kinder to us! We will be running a dedicated facebook page for this event so keep an eye out for it and hopefully we can make this a success. Cheers Dwayne, Manawatu ford club.
