Hi Jan,
I had another great weekend at Corowa. Unfortunately I didn't manage to get my jeep finished to bring it along but it will be ready for the next event.

I couldn't see this mentioned previously but looking through some of the photos of the event, there appears to be 4 GPA's at the lineup at the airport yet only 3 appear in your list. Was one missed out and does that make 181 jeeps in total?

Ian

Default Trailer for the 2010 DVD

I've just uploaded a short trailer for the Year of the Jeep to Vimeo - let me know what you think. I'd like to be able to produce the DVD before the event next year... but it always takes longer than I'd hope.

Looking good, Keith.
Everyone had a ball. Nothing but good reports all-round.

How could I say anything else but.........Fantastic!.........your editing skills keep getting better & better Keith.

The bit youve got master now is immerse yourself in the event with your own vehicles & shoot & interview at the same time.

Speaking of, how about a bit on Vimeo of your driving in a Cab12???

Thats providing the filming wasnt too crappy. The bloke on the camera was a novice to say the least.

Excellent. Looks like a good time was had by all. First time I see a right-hand drive M151, BTW - a Japanese copy?
