Default All American Car Show
Here some pics of the American Car Show held to day at Queanbeyan Show Grounds. By far the best part was the Ford GT (not replica). The owner was nice enough to let me sit in it.

Should have asked him for the keys!!!
Was a good day too, great turnout. Pity about the EF Fairmont Wagon... I believe it is now a convertible.

It was the "All american and chrysler car show". The spectator car park had as many interesting cars as the entrants paddock.

Yup - was at AOMC @ Flemington - great cars.

And a couple of cars that were a little confused about what the show was...

(There was a Hotty Gemini, a HK GTS Monaro, and an EH Holden Ute, as well as a couple of Aussie Fords.... Weird)
