Cleveland Retro Markets

 Now...this is where my excuses come...my camera flash at night obviously is not up to scratch....so you will just have to let your imagination flow.....this was the 2nd event, but the first at the new location at Cleveland....all of 5 minutes from my home.....and the place was packed!!...not so much cars, but people...it was like sideshow alley at the EKKA!
 The Woolies carpark lacked lighting, so some cars were just lost to the dark...note I only took pics where some street lights were, so this could use some fixing before the next one....apparently, this will be a monthly event,





 it was ridiculous trying to look at the cars...way too dark..






 The entertainment was great...good music, rock n rollers, lots of family, and good to see local mainstream folks out for the night, and getting introduced to the retro/car atmosphere.

 No shortage of food vans in the closed off Bloomfield Street, and only a 5 minute walk back to the marina area, where the Raby Bay Markets was also on, and down there, any number of food shops available for sit-down dinner..
 Garry and Deb Moore had their 55 Ford Courier on display......next to daughter Cassie and husband Steves display
 SCP Cassie n Steve were pushing their upholstery andcoach-builder skills


So..a bit of rain, but didn't stop the crowds...local council were out in  support, local SES helping with the crowd/parking, this could turn into a very well attended event..of course, if we ever get daylight saving, that would help events like this as well..
