RACQ MotorFest 2012

[Dave] The other weekend I headed down to check out the RACQ MotorFest with my wife and some mates. I have been going to this event for a few years now and it continues to grow in both spectators and participants. The Japanese section of the show is slowly growing with some nice cars making it out. Maybe SteeredLife will have to enter a car next year... cough Nick. Anyway here are a few that caught my eye.
 

This neat Skyline had a neat engine bay to match...

Featuring a detailed air box and polished rocker cover.

An unassuming Datsun.

With a blower and fuel injection on the side.

Were else but MotorFest can you see a near perfect Cosmo with a modified 3507 and Mrs Stig behind it.

This was an owner built 3 wheel car with disc brake front.

And what looks to be a Honda motor bike engine.

Bowdens brung their beautiful Mercedes out for the day.

This panel van got my interest for its looks.

And what appears to be a Toyota supercharger under the bonnet.

Old Mazda's at Downshift

[Dave] So its that time of the month again for the Downshift Monthly meet at Rocklea Show grounds. This time I thought I would snap some picks of the old Mazda's that made it out. They are slowly growing in numbers which is fine by me. I have a soft spot for the old girls both Rotary and Piston Powered. I thought I'd Chuck up a pick of Conar's recently sacked Lexus with its new wheels, quite the VIPper now.
