Yamba,
'08.
The weather held
out most of the weekend, though the Saturday night thunderstorm is
not uncommon. When most were on their way home Sunday, storms lashed
south-east Queensland a northern New South Wales, making for a slow,
wet trip back home. None of that had the slightest impact on the
run's overall success though, as you can see here.

radiator of this A pickup, built in the traditional style.
Ron Solomon's '41 Willys coupe isn't really this
colour, but it is hard to get the shade right, as it is so bright.
A pro '32 in more ways than one, Murray Teale's
fully fendered roadster oozes class and attention to detail.
Gary Wright bought his '31 coupe on e-Bay, then
went to the US to pick it up. He has plans to personalise the tasty
little coupe.
Neil Smith's poster orange '32 3-window is both

Lester have had their cars featured in
these hallowed pages.

There are chopped '32 sedans - then there is this
one. A crowd-puller at every show, the flaming beauty is worth a
peek.
Dale Meredith's Mopar uses the ultimate in Mopar
power plants - an early Desoto hemi with a trio of Demons.
As the cars are lined up in random order, it was
quite unusual to get such a group of '30\31 Model As. It also provided
us with an unusual photo opportunity.
Trent Hamel's hiboy rumpity rumps around the
park; the cammy idle sounds like pure hot rod.

Kiwi Pete's nifty '32 roadster had a whole new
look, due entirely to a change in wheels.

the fifties.

look great together, in a rare display of primary colours.
Bruce Draman entered this '35 3-window coupe, and
it had a for sale sign on it; $42k.

little, replacing the steel top with a soft top. Now everyone wants
