Suncoast R&C Club/Darryls memorial/Roadstars Roundup..

In S.E.Qld., it seems lately we are spoiled for choices....what do we attend..car events everywhere, and this last Sunday, i had the choice of the Kustoms of Aust. car shop n swap at Yatala, which was up against Rods Inc.s car show n swap meet at Jimboomba...but I had an invite to go to maroochydore for the coffee morning, and made use of a 4 day break..took the caravan rather than the hot rod..
 You can always count on one of our senior citezens to arrive first...and technically, he is between two lines...
 there was about 50 cars from memory..here's some of them..
































 and..a few candid shots from some of the ROADSTARS club members who turned up



 trying to organise a group shot....c'mon..




 Nah..I wasn't a Roadstar..but got to photo-bomb it anyway...keen eyes will note that some Roadstars members went on to start other clubs..Rebels..Cheetahs..Bay Area etc..
 And...Ralph Donahoo and John Murray STILL fit into their jackets..unlike me on the side, can't call me STICKMAN anymore..lol

old pic of Ralph Donahoo in his T bucket at the first 1966 drag meet, up against fellow club member John Anderson.....love catching up with these guys who started our hobby in the 60s, think I will have a "Roundup" of other clubs elder members at my coffee mornings next year...we need to do this, as health and age is catching up with us all, ..yes..lets do more catch-ups and remember those old days.
