Year of the Chrysler
 

Includes this beast - which got my vote for best Chrysler.

Burma Dodge, built for the Chinese. Only two known to be in running condition in this country (and they never came here as new trucks). Originally had a tray on the back. Changed to Prime mover to legally drive
at events.
Owner kindly let me have a drive - big flat six purred effortlessly.
Beautiful five speed crash box, very easy to shift (even for me) Fifth gear one to one.

Keith do you have the MLU photo?
Email ot to me and I will tag all of the attendees

I was there for a couple of hours on Saturday, quite impressive.
I even learnt some CMP stuff :)

Photo
 

Nope the pics were taken on other people's cameras this year. I think one of them was Jan's 'chick' iPhone. Not sure who else's were used.

Attached is a MLU Group photo.

Another generation
 

This was the first year my daughter, son in law and 2 year old grandson attended. Henry couldn't get enough of it although the carrier overwhelmed him somewhat.

Few more
 

A couple from around the grounds..

The little Ford Marmon
 

This really is a beauty and probably my favourite of the event...

Owner needs some help. Perhaps seeing this may instill a bit of Dutch patriotism??

3 MLU shirts there as well.

Finally had time to watch the year of DVD for 2015, thank you again Keith for keeping the memories alive, a must have DVD for CMP lovers. :thup2:

There could have been 4, but I had been wearing mine earlier in the week, bad planning! Will rectify next year.

Just got home an hour ago. Great trip and everything went well.

best regards,
Richard

Here is Alan Newton after I presented him with the Life Membership certificate, and Jan who received hers earlier. The third certificate was sent up to Queensland to be presented to Ian Grieve.

Alan and Ian were the original instigators of the event 37 years ago, when it was just planned to be a get together of Ford GPA amphibs. Jan received the award for her tireless work and enthusiasm since around 1996 when the event started to grow.

best regards,
Richard

Thanks to my brother Rob, for the photo

Thank you Richard, hopefully a picture of Ian will also turn up one day. :thup2:
