The Get together was held at the Cattle and Sheep Dome, Kelso on the outskirts of Bathurst N.S.W. over the Easter period.
I countered 23 cars in attendance. Many state groups attended the get together.
Congratulations to the NSW P76 Owners Club for a great weekend. Our personnel thanks to Norm and Marea.
As participants of the weekend we had plenty to keep us busy.
So many different cars to admire.
As you will see when the the photos become available, the variants of engineering excellance, different shades of colour, the way that members "maintain with Pride" their machinery.

The people also experienced the Mountain

Congratulation to Neville and runner up Garth for winning the most modified, Trophy, with the Peoples choice going to Dave for the beautiful Blue Targa.

Dave's new Targa
Some of the most interesting cars were just run of the mill work horses, out of site but needing to be checked out.
The Raffle and Auction held on the Sunday night was well attended, with the masters of the proceedings being Dave (with the gavel N.....) and Dave (hansome attendant Co....).
Everyone was waiting for the gavel ( a stuffed fish) to fly apart.

Congratulation to Christine on being the major raffle prize winner.
Also may I thank the members and clubs that donated items to the raffle.
