Hi guys. Just attended the Australian mustang national held in Ballarat Victoria. It was a great day weatherwise and got to see some very nice Mustangs. All up about 150. I have attached photos of the 3 California specials and the 1 H.C.S. My car was not amongst them because it was a members only meet. Mine was delegated to the carpark. Have attached photos. Hope they turn out.

The Lime Green GT/CS looks beautiful.

Looks like someone took a picture of the blue in a mirror.

Nice photos here on my screen. Hope you got some vin numbers for me, particularly the green '67 HCS for my registry, and perhaps those Cal Specials, also, which may or may not be registered and I would send that info to Paul N. Can you help out ????????? Thank you, Bob Teets here.

It would take alot of Foster's to get me behind the wheel of a right hand drive car!!! Heck, just as many to ride in the left hand seat going down a road!!!

Just seems so odd!! But, I bet a bloak can get used to it!

Well after a couple of Fosters you probably wouldnt want to get behind the wheel anyways. :wink:

Of course the funny part is you would end up in the drivers seat when your just trying to get to the passenger side!! LOL!!

Glad you like the Fosters. Please don't trying to get into the RHD concept Rob. We can't stand the muck down here!

Any time I've gone to LHD-land it has been easy to adjust - only trouble is on coming home my mustang, despite being RHD, wants to drive up the wrong side of every street for a couple of days.

Thanks, VMAN for posting the photos. How did the show go overall? How many Mustangs?

Sure--only if you can, try to get the VINs of those two CSs you have in the photos (my new address-- Paul M. Newitt, P.O. Box 427, Danville, CA 94526 USA)

Who knows--I may wish to attend some time, as I love OZ, and would like to go there someday.

I think that a Falcon GT with a Monza nose, in, oh, say...black...in the rear view mirror..might get an eyebrow raised by an American driver in OZ...

Thanks for the photos and coverage--very cool!

I'm glad that you enjoyed the photos. I will email the different state mustang clubs for vin's and details but cant promise anything before your lomming deadline. I hope I can have something for you.
