Last 75.....much better day when the sun came out Sunday.......



Rodney doing laps and taking the weight off...here's proof...over 10,000 steps today!
way to go, Rod....keep it up...








 Timeless Tudor .....this should be in everyones book..."how to get the look right"


 This A pickup would be in the same book.....

 Hopper..Stopper Special...
 really nice car here....pity the hot rods got in the way.......haha...Yogi n friends..
Hmmm..different..
nice clean A....(my opinion, but I prefer them with A grilles, not dem later model ones..

I couldn't figure out what was going on here in this frame...pretty sure this was Bob Milburns old T roadster from the way back when..knowing him, it would ba a space frame deal further back
photographs of photographers..
"ain't she sweet..." , as the song goes...another one for the book "How to build them Right!"

This was nice!

here's the little A coupe I found broken down at Taree...all fixed and ready to cruise again..
However...Toms flatty was in for maintenance....
just an air leak..easy fix!
Tarantos workshop always turns out neat Fords..

Bob n Noela Dykes....helping push along the sport from the early days..thanks Bob..(our first National Director)
was a nice pic of the Tilta trailers.....until these Toowoomba-ites photobombed..
nice deep black paint on this pickup...shows off the Taranto F series, and Steve Davies Tudor..


"burp".....my place to eat all weekend...best pizzas I've had in a long time!
Trade displays were...ok...not too many, but enough to keep us happy.



crowd starting to build for afternoon raffle draw, and trophies..
found this cute mini rod out the back..
just under 1000 entrants, and most wanted to win the Rod Bods 32..
even modeller expert, and 33/34 fleet owner Chris Dansie waiting to see who won what..
here's more injuries....seems to be a lot of folks hurt themselves this weekend...blame it on the rain!
Here's the car...got your tickets ready.....
and the winner is.........can't remember...someone from Qld...


and it was none of these Queenslanders...
Peter Raines ....posing for a pic..
Burgo had enough...just gotta sit there and wait....trophies went on for a bit......
Taking it all in...Brenda and Col Chapman (Qld State Director)..event organiser, Jenny Carter, and photog of the stars n cars, Cruisins' Dale Habafield..
more of the Falzonsareus....or as I heard someone say, the maltese mafia..



Love the simplicity of Charlie Falzons Model A


sick six.....nice to see an old falcon with triples..

Top Tudor was from Queensland...
The Chapmans Mercury looking as good as ever....and to think I owned this once, and sold it 'cause I thought it was...well..not as nice looking as a cusso....(what was I thinking!)








Well, that's all I have....another Nats done, a few problems with the weather, but it came good in the end...thanks to all those who put these events on...congrats!
