Default A Corowa special offer

This year I'm bundling all previous DVDs into one lot - that's 6 DVDs for $120 and have prepared a flyer. This will be available at the event - either see me or someone at the official HQ. The new DVD is the seventh and is available individually.

Thanks Robert, glad you enjoyed it!

This year's has PLENTY of fun action - It may have been Year of the Jeep officially, but it was also Year of the breakdown with the more serious trouble occurring with Blitzes than Jeeps. It could also have been known as Year of the mud puddle with all the rain which fell at the beginning of the week. I didn't get there until Wednesday evening but Andrew McIntosh was there early with his camera and has kindly let me load his footage of the wet and how a Dodge Weapons Carrier can handle almost anything!

What a gr8 weekend I had. Thank you to the organizers I don't know how you do it so well with that many vehicles.
I found some bits at the swapmeet I have been looking for for ages, caught up with some MLU friends and even some long lost relations. Also checked out my favourite duck shooting spot for next weekend and the wineries on the way home. Does life get any better than that? Heres the link to some of my pictures. As you can see I was doing a survey of Chev rear view mounting positions.

Default The thrill of Corowa

We arrived on the Tuesday with our dodge truck with the C15A on the tray and caravan behind - also one flat tyre. The time there was absolutely fantastic and enjoyed very much. A big thanks to all who helped organise the event. It is something to be very proud of.

Our trip home was eventfull. We needed a new tyre for the truck at Seymour and 9 kms out of Seymour the dodge backfired and stopped half way up a hill and on a corner (panic broke out) The battery died and then we swapped the battery from the blitz and thankfully the dodge started again. Thank heavens for the blitz!!! We arrived home at 7.30 after 530 kms from Corowa. Looking forard to next year. Today is a day of rest.

Colin and Joy

Great week, as expected. I felt a bit naked not having a vehicle there, but have decided to have the vickers light tank ready for next year as it does fit the theme. Thanks to all the organizers for their great effort.
Colin & Simone.
