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.

Can anyone help with these requests?

Names of people who attended from overseas, where they live and their connection with military vehicles.

Information on breakdowns which occurred. There were some which occurred while on the way to Corowa, others occurred at Corowa and there are bound to be some breakdowns on the way home.

I am doing a report for some overseas magazines, newsletters etc and if you have anything else of interest please let me know. Feel free to post on the forum or send me an email. kveinc@optusnet.com.au

Hi Jan,
I had a great time at Corowa and was pleased to meet you. It's the POM Dave Boocock from West Yorkshire, England. I have owned my Jeep 27 years and WDM20 for 21 years and once part owned a C15.
I'm looking forward to a return visit, when the exchange rate is a bit better
Regards,
Dave

Default Catch Up

Tim, it was great to see you on the Saturday too. If the offer for a drive next year is still open, I'll definately take it up. Shame there wasn't any more time on the Saturday to have more of a yarn. My kids were getting a bit hot & impatient by the end of the day.

I say let the Lucas jokes begin.....

Did you know Lucas invented the intermittent wiper.

Think about it.........

Lets see how many people can be identified. I also wonder who missed being in the photo.
