Default AFD Day 2008 OzECruisers **Not 56k friendly :( **












The first pictures of the OzECruisers, our first event, one of many. The above pictures are just the first of many to come. If anybody wants the originals I'm happy to email them - just give us a PM. They're about 2meg in size.

Pics work for me!

It was a great day, even though it was so damn hot... I've got plenty of pics which will go up in due time...

Big thanks to everyone involved, it was a great debut for us as a club!

It was a great day. The turnout for OzeCruisers wasn't big, but what it lacked in quantity, it made up for in quality. The All Ford Day was massive, although that heat is a bit extreme!

Yep, was a great day, was nice to meet a few new people and put a few faces to names etc.

Cars looked great! I agree with Dezza, what we lacked in quantity, we made up for in quality. All the cars were well presented, and our overall setup was welcoming and well laid out.

Yep, I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of attention we received, people were actually stopping to look at our cars, rather than just walking through and having a glance.


Big thanks to all involved in organising the day by the way, it went seamlessly.
