2012 Corowa Swim-In Year of the 6x6

[Keith Webb]

The rain did indeed disappear and we had fabulous weather for the parade and display. As mentioned it was in a new location at the Corowa Racecourse and it worked very well. Here's the pic from the Cherry picker.

There were some 167 vehicles present (although not all were in this display) and 23 of these were 6X6 vehicles which was the theme for this year.

Here's most of the CMPs at Corowa for 2012, starting with Cameron Reed's new build F30/F60S Ford, then Len Schutt's C8AX, Rob Jacob's C60L, Euan McDonald's C15A, Max Hedge's F15A (The Girlfriend) and Tony Elliott's Cab 12 F60L.



And here it is from the other angle:



Cameron's presence was a terrific effort, with a huge amount of work done to get her here, untested, and it was a triumph including having to drive through torrential rain and darkness. He kindly let me take her for a drive around the river below the camping ground and it was a highlight of the event for me.

I havent downloded mine or Vicki's cameras yet but we had a great time in Corowa again. Dutchy made Gregs day when he gave him a marshiling job at the show ground. I hope everyone arrives home without incident and I got to put a fiew more faces to names on the forum.

Heard quite a few positive comments about the final site for the Swap and display.
Thanks for all the effort under trying circumstances.

So pleased the weather turned out well for the event and everyone. That's a terrific collection of vehicles.

I had a great time, even though I only got down there Thursday. Truck went well. Caught up with a heap of good people.

The Showground/Racecourse as the Saturday destination for the Swap meet? Absolutely fantastic!!!!

Hi Keith

Hi Keith

Wish you wouldn't post pictures like that, my keyboard gets all wet from drooling in envy as I look at the great photos. But from the photos is appears things got a little damp at times there as well.

Now that looks like quite a good show.

Cheers Phil
