left hand side - 4 from the front..

 

Unfortunately the second day of ToranaWest - scheduled to be at the Curtin car show was pretty well cycloned out. Persistant rain meant that 490 cars expected turned into about a 100odd. And instead of a park full of Toranas we had 5. Although 2 were a9x.

Yes the weather was not good,
Saturday was a treat though, sorry we missed it, as we couldn't make it, Saturday,
Today we took a short drive from Busselton to Waroona , and unfortunately the weather was no friend there either,
Maybe about 65 vehicles , but wrapped up about 2 pm .

Some more photos taken during the day.

The guys from the north side of Perth left Tomato Lake to meet up with the southerners at Southbound B.P. where I intended to get drone footage of the two lots of cars merging together on the freeway. Unfortunately, with the cyclone on its way down the coast, it was way too windy to put the drone up, so after getting a few shots of cars rocking up at the roadhouse, I went to the Safety Bay overpass and took a few pics from there.

Peter nearly scrapped this car when he saw the body after having the paint stripped. I am glad he persevered with it as it looks a million bucks now.

It would have something to do with it, but most guys that I know have owned them for 25+ years, so they weren't quite so valuable back then.

The 1970's radar detector in Tim's A9X was a nice touch. Still worked too.

Now, I have never met Marty, but I would bet a million dollars that this is his car. Absolutely stunning. My favourite for the whole weekend.

All of these photos are low resolution, so if anybody wants a copy of any of them I will email through a high res one.

The Sunday show at Curtain University was a total washout with heavy rain all day.  A few brave souls still got their Toranas to the oval though.
