Capri - 2015 Auto Spectacular


The Auto Spectacular, held at Willowbank Raceway, west of Brisbane, is one event that always seems to attract a huge number of very different vehicles. There is something for all auto enthusiasts, from dragsters, motorcycles, new cars, vintage, classics to the usual Falcons and Holdens. Not many small Fords though!

The car display is the major feature, however the swap meet in the side paddock (very few Capri or Escort bits) combined with the many trade displays gives one plenty to look at. Then at 11 the drags start. Anyone can turn up & have a go and there were some interesting runners but no Capris this year.  So in all, there is a wide variety of attractions.

The club had four cars turn out .There were two other Capris on display, a silver V8 & the red V6 which was for sale. For the first time in many years, I didn’t have a car going to bring along. As usual, there is always someone wanting to talk about the Capris. We have a good spot at the venue – in the shade, beside the food stalls & dunnies, so in all, with the good weather, it was a worthwhile event to attend.
Here are some pics (click to enlarge).
