The "Kenworth Corral" at Clarendon....

Hey stuckingear, fantastic photo's, thanks for taking the time to put them up.

Dad and I are taking the truck out first thing in the morning, can't wait. Everyone I've spoken with today out there is raving about it. Well done to AERODYNE and JOTS for the KW effort

G'day Cunning.... Great to catch up with you yesterday.Just noticed this post and I would have to say my input was miniumal to nothing compared to what Chappo and Steve Brown put in....
Full credit to these 2 guys and also Big Darrell and Dave (don't know his surname) for putting a full day in on Friday getting trucks out there.... Cheers James.

G'day and thanks to all those who put effort in to staging the show, and putting up some photo's for those that couldn't be there.
I suppose the fellow with the walker is Ed Cameron, but would like to know who some of the others are. When I went to Dubbo I would have walked past plenty of forum blokes without knowing. I wore a HCVC cap with name tag thinking that someone may intro themselves, without luck. Maybe we can work out a way to catch up at such events. Cheers

For a couple of years at the Sandown Show there was a get together of Forum Members. Maybe we could do something similar this year. And at other shows too

Re the "old cummins mechanic" in the photo above talking to Ed Cameron ..................... Ron just wanted to say what a rare privilege it was to meet and speak with the man who had the vision and courage go down the path that changed the face of road transport in Australia.

Well said.I was thinking when I took the pic , maybe its going down the line of (what was going through your head when you ordered detroits) .Hope all the other shows go off as good as this. .Jimbo , they were licorice stains left by all the kids jumping up into them,messy buggars.

Swishy is proberly wundering where are the pics of Jimmys badge collection????
Best show I've been to in years!!!!! KW-guy...

The guys even had that covered.
.
I think the film will be bigger than Convoy once he,s been around all the shows. . .
I think we were all worn out from keeping an eye on his badges.Jimmy wouldn,t let them out of his sight.

Time for some pics! Once again, it was a brilliant effort by everyone involved.

Chappo, you're an ace. To get onto that many people and get all of those Kenworths assembled in a few weeks was just brilliant. Caught up with some old mates, poured some water under the bridge with a couple of others..............life's too short you know.

No real order but here's some shots







Paddy Wards awesome spread





The Master at work. How's this bloke?? Flew in from the States mid week, called me Friday, couldn't come to the show due to family commitments and then rings back Saturday to get details. Now THAT'S family support for ya!







Phil Potter owns this 104B along with the Acco below. The old Inter is really clean but his cabover always looks this nice, it's is one of the classiest looking Kenworths that drives around Sydney

A lot of you are familiar with Pat Vassallo's R200 with the C180 Cummins in it, this is his T908 towing a one owner SAR owned by one of his mates







Pat's Cummins powered Inter





And this is Pat's boy Nick who I think knows more about every truck and every owner than they do themselves. I was honoured when Nick had gone to the trouble of hand crafting a paper model of my Commer, he's a talent!!

A couple of the Pike Inters, they had five there in total



And Pikey senior had his awesome Effie Ford there



Ross, Ted & Scotty Firth's Knocker



I think I'll do the rest from work tomorrow due to my computer going into overload all the time :'(
