of variety in cars some for sale others

classics to get close to and admire and some out of reach
for the mere mortals in dollar terms.
If your a looking for another muscle car to add to your
garage some owners have big ears and are listening to
your offers, everything is always for sale..

The AMCCA will be securing an area for your car to display
 and we are asking for those that are likely to spend some time
and come along join in with fellow members and make the club
shine again.as I said its also are great event if you are selling
or looking to buy and get an idea what would be nice to

events cor-ord ,we need details like a meeting point

and where  we are  putting the cars ,,the area at the event

There talking showers  and this event could be moved
inside and its dark and not real good my wipers need work
 I could meet just outside the exit off m7 I dont tag, old school.

Great to see a healthy roll up but if it rains we understand

We will be there  :pepper:

Anybody have any other meeting spots other than on the M7? And a rough time of arriving there? I am assuming we will have our own area to park again like last year?  :kickass:

Cheers  :cheers:

For those coming from the south & southwest the meeting place for All American Day Castle Towers will be on the M7, just before the Elizabeth Drive exit there is a truck parking bay on the left & it is large enough to accommodate our cars.
We will be meeting at 7.45am for a 8am departure.
For those those going straight to Castle Towers we should be there about 8.45.

Parking for AMCCA will be the same as in previous years, just look for the clubs banners.
Hope the weather is kind to us this year & a little cooler.

Cheers Maureen

Made it to Castle Towers. I was guided me towards the Chevs and only found the AMCCA gang after I parked.

Met a couple of the lads, but promptly forgot your names   :sorry:

First show for me and was VERY impressed. Apparently it was down a bit on numbers from previous years, but I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Great result Leigh,

                          As we chatted in the drizzle we both hoped that
your vision and hard work would pay off with the firebird and that
the events judges were able to acknowledge the quality and award
and reward for effort.I left early as it sprinkled and am so pleased
for you about the trophy
                    Around 20+ cars made the trip and did the club proud
and all made the most of the day chatting shopping and looking at
the other cars on show there were many forsale  and some excellent
cars on display.
                        Numbers were down certainly not amongst the mustangs and corvettes
mainly form other makes such as rods
       the overcast conditions made for a cool pleasant day most unusual
for castle towers
       To all that made the trip from the amcca committee ,we thank you

ps we were missing some club apparal shirts ,caps, to sell plz fix that next time..cheers

Hi Les,
I've been told that Club  Apparel is only available to members and as my contact details are on the Committee page - I am only a phone call away from meeting their needs (and indeed I have had members call to our house to collect a surprise shirt for Christmas for hubby) - as neither of our Camaro's are currently roadworthy (some members will remember us sitting on the side of the road waiting for the rain to stop so we could see when we got caught with not working wipers on the Gledswood Farm run the Sunday before) we could not make the run to the All American Day. As I understand it,  we don't promote and sell our logo ed merchandise to non members and while there are good reasons for both sides I am happy to abide by previous policies. Glad you all had a good day.

Thank you Gene,I obviously dont understand club policy
 being on committee I am discovering less is better.
I could have bought a mustang cap or polo shirt on
the day they would have been happy to sell it to me
yes at full price and not members discount oh well.

This is the biggest exposure for our club the all
American day is where I believe it all started and thank god
for that just on a bad day the heat can destroy ones enthusiam.
There are some great photos posted very good snappers out there
and we look forward to another big year ahead getting out
enjoying the runs :hi: :hi: :hi: :hi: :hi: :hi: :hi: :hi: :hi: :hi: :hi: :hi:
