A very small part of the 300+ hot rod procession winds its way past the Valla pub, after the street display in town.

John Philpot's chopped '30 coupe was put together in just 10 months, and the $65k asking price should see it sold fairly quickly.

Allan Scott's '38 Chevy coupe is often published in the hot rod books, and if you click on the picture, you'll see why.

Rob Osberg '28 hiboy roadster pickup is a neat little jigger - we love the colour coded bars in the deuce grille shell.

The 'other' red '36 roadster at Valla was from Victoria, which proves that Victorians also have great taste.

Graham Martin's hiboy coupe rumble seat has the rarest of all of the '34 Ford accessories - Ian Cameron.

Fred Eyley's '36 roadster looks spot on - the wide whites and steel wheels give it that sought after old timey look.

Chad Lackey's '34 Tudor always looks great - is that a new pinstripe running the length of the car?

Chris Hickman's Willys coupe hunkers down. The blown SBC powered car is from Manning Valley Cruisers, Taree.

The bobbed rear guards are not often seen, but they were popular in the day, and they keep more grit & stuff off the car than cycle guards.

Yellow cars are notoriously difficult to photograph, but we had to make a special effort to get this '34 Tudor.

Pat Laub had some nibbles on his fuel injected SBC powered '41 Willys coupe, but it hasn't been sold yet.

Gary Hudson's heavily hammered '35 Tudor gets to plenty of runs. The lowered lid would allow it to slip smoothly through the air.
