    Great morning

    Hi all,

    Agree it was a great event. I hadn't been for 8 years so was an eye opener to see so many more vehicles. Saw Jennies' van however no one hanging around to chat to.

    I loved the Green HQ WA66IN, I saw it driving around Penrith Saturday morning and nearly crashed trying to get a look at it.

    We didn't come over until Sunday morning so not a lot left at the swap meet, it was a go way to educate my son on different parts. Great variety of cars, utes and vans - dissapointed there wasn't more custom vans. We did get a photo of my son (12) with Stormbringer, we had one of him next to it 8 years ago so is a great time capsule of photography.

    Unfortunately didn't take the HQ over as had 3 mates and my son so we took the VE II SV6 wagon which was a great little trip.

    I will be a bit more organised next time and bring the ute over and put her in the display and catch up with everyone,

    cheers,

    Scott
