The Mid North Coast Ford Owners Club proudly announces that it will be hosting the All Ford Day in sunny Port Macquarie at Andrew Miedecke Ford on November 14th 2010. The event is proudly sponsored by Shannon's Insurance and Gulf Western Oil. There will be several activities for the family and kids, there will be also food and drink, categories for all age groups of Fords (including hot rods). We are doing our best to have several Ford V8 race cars there and we are in the process to maybe have the George Miedecke LubriMaxx V8 ute there. Cars can enter the premises from 7.00AM and presentations will be at 2.00PM SHARP. Entry fee is $15 per vehicle which is payable at the gate. Andrew Miedecke Ford is located at 100 Hastings River Drive Port Macquarie. Andrew will have open his merchandise and spare parts store for bargain parts and reduced priced merchandise for all attending. For all those that need accommodation the Best Western Hotel which is almost located across the road from Andrew Miedecke Ford, has offered accommodation at corporate rates for those who mention that they are there for the All Ford Day !! The phone number for the Best Western is 02 6583 5333 and the website is http://macquariebarracks.bestwestern.com.au/ . We hope this will be the biggest display of Fords on the Mid North Cost, and we hope to make it a regular event in Port Macquarie. We hope to see you all there in beautiful Port Macquarie on the 14th of November. If you have any enquiries, please contact Gordon Scott on 0423420078.

Looks like a good show, but a fair hike.

Its a 1.5 day drive. If you are willing to get a real early start and are prepared for a late arrival then you could do it in 1 day, but I wouldn't recommend it unless your swapping drivers.

I'd love to see what's there but I won't be able to make it sorry.

Too far for me. I do like the interstate shows but too far and too many add too many km's to the car. The Wagga All Ford Day was a good distance..

Nah, just pick and choose which shows to go to. Got plenty coming up on the local scene.

I have never been to the central coast and wouldn't mind a good cruise.

Too far for me in one day. Especially with all the roos along the route.

not to bad of a drive from canberra, did it last year in one day non stop on my own, might do it again if money and time off provides

Last year after the Sydney AFD I went across to Bathurst, up to Tamworth (dirt road but great senery. Also the RAAF blast through the vally near Rylstone at VERY low alt) and then back to Port Macquarie before coming all the way back to Melbourne following the coast. Sadly it was pouring with rain in Port Macguarie so I didn't stay for very long but I imagine the coast is quite nice in good weather. Also worth a look is a historic villiage in Wauchop just up the Oxley hwy.
