Torquay car show?

[seavan]

Jeza, the theme for last year was surf vehicles and they had to have a surf board on or in them. This year they have gone with a Tradies ute theme and vehicles have to have tools in them. (must admit I have seen heaps of tools in utes around the surfcoast this summer) I think they should stick to the surf theme it makes it unique to Torquay then!
Good car show and getting bigger as you say.

Thats right - I think it was vintage surfboards. Agree the surf theme is certainly more appropriate for Toquat and the Surf Coast. I found some photos from last year.

I'm heading down tomorrow with the van - not that i reckon it's 'show' quality but just for a bit of a buzz, my two boys are looking forward to it. As it turns out there is still the surf theme as well as a Bunnings sponsored 'tradies' theme. So ive pulled a vintage board thats around the same era as the HZ. There's an entry form that you hand in on the day. If anybody goes be sure to say g'day!

It was a good (but very windy) day at Torquay. Saw and admired your van Jeza. The only panel van that I could see at the event. Nice.

Love that silver FJ Van on the previous page...it has modern Mini headlights which sounds weird but they suit it very nicely

It was really windy but a great spot with the beach as the backdrop. Yep no other Holden vans which was a bit disappointing, contrast to the last couple of years... To my surprise my two boys (5 & 8) managed not to get bored staying with me from 8 until about 1 - a couple of swims helped that but they also loved showing off the Sandman!
