The Corvettes were at the entrance gate, you get a surprise when you see that many as you don't see them driving around in the city that often.

A good line up of Ford Model As in various colours.

Shannons Classic Car Show at Ascot Racecourse

This image and left: At three o’clock it was time to go home. Not so plain sailing for everyone. Jake did have a break down on the way to the show so finer adjustments to Jim’s Foden had to be made before the trip home.

Another red and white combination that drew some interest from enthusiasts was Herby’s 4WD Humber and Colin Day’s Mack.

That's a pair of fins!

Car enthusiasts were out in force on this lovely day. There were vehicles on show to suit everyone's taste. Big flashy American cars with fins and chrome, old vintage cars and trucks and the very quirky and unusual. Thanks to Shannons Insurance for another excellent event. Lights on the Hill on Saturday and Shannons on Sunday. Eddy always has the sign and flag out for the club.

Russell Phillips from East Victoria Park and his recently immaculately restored 1937 Diamond T. A 1928 Ford tow truck fitted with a three ton Apac auto crane made in Adelaide.

Above, right and below: A bit more quirky were the Ikara kit car, the three wheeler that didn't look all that stable maybe it was better with a load on and the Tatra with the double window at the back.

Above and above left: A Holden Ute and a panel van with venetian blinds from the same vintage. A closer inspection of Nolan Classic Spares logo will reveal the coincident between the business address, year of establishment, phone number and the make, model and engine of the car. Established 1964 and located in 254 Holden street and the Phone number is 24 1964.

Rod Boyd always brings a load on the Fiat to the different events, this time it was one of his Fiat cars.
