Post by: Hewart on March 05, 2006, 10:47:11 AM
Just letting you know if you're in Sydney's South tomorow morning, the Shifter's Heathcote swap meet is on at Cooper Street Park, Engadine from around 7:30am.

Not exactly sure how many Holden parts will be there, but there is always planty of great cars to look at....

Cheers

Did anyone get any pics of the unofficial car show ?
That Black Chevy 57 convertible stopped me dead in my tracks for about half an hour.

Hi
    I was there only for about an hour but didn't take the camera. I must have had tunnel vision as I didn't see a black 57 chev, then again the 3year old daughter was hanging to get to the playground stuff.
We were only able to keep her at bay long enough to check out the swap meet & a few of the rods.

Bloody work kept me away.
I did see that 57 on the road tonight. Looked cool under the streetlights. He wasn't driving it like it was his Moms car either.  ;D
The 1 I saw had some pretty big wheels on it and LHD. Is that the car?
Regards
Alex

Yep Alex thats the one ,Looked like 19 or 20ish rims ,I bet it looked good on the road glistening and shimmering under the lights ,And good to hear that someone is enjoying the fruits.

Sorry guys... I didn't see the '57 Chevy either... :'(

By the time I walked up in the morning (I only live up the road), the rods had already started to leave and the swappers were packing up... the only Holden I saw was an EJ....

This is the only Chevy I took a pic of....

Nice ZZ Top copy...

My kids (seen in the background here under the white arrow) were itching to get to the playground too....

Only other pics were a few close-ups here and there, but not much more.... Sorry 'bout the '57!
