For many years the RACQ has organized Motorfest in Brisbane. Last years event was cancelled due to Covid so this year it was anticipated by many. Unfortunately due to a new venue with reduced space, unusual entry conditions and a late attempt at entry, I could not take one of my Capris. The first time for many years that I have not be able to do this. So yesterday I went to the RNA Showgrounds to check out the cars & the new/old venue. It was in the side show alley area with most classic cars under the huge marquee. The cars were parked really close together so with the large number of people it was difficult walking between them. I thought there was the same amount of undercover (in another marquee) devoted to food stalls & markets. That was a pity as it was a beautiful day outside. As usual, plenty of different vehicles with a lot of electric cars on display. And yes, 1 beautiful Capri belonging to a former club member. Only 2 other small Fords, a Cortina GT and an electric Cortina. Not even 1 Escort! The only cars I saw with the mandatory drip trays were the BMWs. Here is small sample of the cars.
