Hi Ryan,

Good photos, I recognise a couple of friends in the background. Incidentally it is nice to see that Daimler Dingo again, still looking good after seven years when I completed the restoration for its then owner. Shame it was not at Corowa, being British and all that

regards, Richard

Hi Richard, I had a great time. That Dingo really looked great up close. Would have been good to see it driving but while I was there it was static only.

Expect it next year Richard. We will make sure Robin gets it up there.

Thanks Jack, look forward to meeting it again !

Well done with your Marmon Herrington, a very nice restoration

[jack neville]

Thanks Richard. Will probably take it again next year with all the final bits in place, (winch etc). Now working on a matching desert coloured 39 Ford 1 ton ute to compliment the Marmon. Ready for next year might be a bit ambitious but you never know.

It's on again this weekend.
I managed to catch a couple of hours there this afternoon and hope to go back tomorrow. Another great collection of vehicles, kit, diaromas and battles. Hope to get some photos tomorrow.
One thing I did like was the vehicle parade in the afternoon around the battlefield arena. Made me feel like I was at some UK event like tankfest or something ( well that's what I asume from reading magazines anyway. )
Always good when a Stuart tank throws up dust and dirt.
One day of it to go 10am to 4pm tomorrow!

Can I please have a mod change the title of this thread to read 'History comes alive in Winchelsea'. Then it can cover the different years more acurately.

The weather was good although quite chilly by the sunday arvo and a great time was had by all who came I believe.
