Coffs Harbour Car Show

Shannons insurance ran a car show in Coffs last Sunday which also featured a section for mini's in recognition of the 50th birthday (in the UK of course , mini's Australian birthday isn't until 2011) . Good line up of mini's and other cars including a fantastic Blitz combo . More photo's over here ,

Some mini's ,















And a few other interesting cars from the day .....

TC Marina that's had a few changes , it had a lot of people guessing what it was ,





Hambster class (google it , it looks like fun) dragster , these guy's are trying to get the Kempsey airport runway open as an 1/8 mile drag strip . This car was built by the owner , he saw the Hambster class running somewhere and was chatting to another driver and said he could probably build something in 6 months before some event , the other guy said it would take longer . It took 3 months and cost a total of $6,000 including buying the trailer it goes on and all the testing and registration to race . First run with a standard Falcon 6 sylinder , now he's fine tuning with various old speed bits he had sitting around . Certainly sounds like a lot of fun .



Blitz combo , very nicely done ,



A wolsely 1800 ,



A kombi ,



Some hotrods ,




Nice impala ,

Some very nice cars there. Looks like a good show all round and perfect weather too. Thanks for sharing the pics.

The variety was the thing , because it was run by Shannons and not any specific car club it was open to and supported by all types of car fans and not just Holden/Ford/hot rodders etc .

I am still wondering why some one would spend money on a marina, I had a 4 door and it was a pig of a car,ended up cooking the motor in it,all others are great.
