Hope it doesn't matter if the photo's aren't strictly of E-Series...you didn't state that!!! (or how many!)

I was mainly into the "Hot Rods" more than anything else...but I'm sure there were others that took pics of E-Series as well...I'm sure they will post theirs.....but I had a ball...and AFD will definately be an annual event for my family...

fair low ey. (prick)
fairlane is lookin good in pics wayne

by **EFFalcon** » February 15th, 2009, 6:51 pm

Thanks to everyone for making a huge effort today.

Everyone was in before 10, pretty much everyone stayed till after the 'official' end.
every one was helpful when it came to getting cars in place and made life easy on me.

was a little concerned when i heard that Dylan/Brad/MarkTD etc did a u-turn randomly

but they got there in the end.
Heaps of attention in the stand and i think we suprised quite a few people with the line of boosted cars.

Everyones cars were looking fantastic, even some of the 'dodgy' touch up jobs came up a treat.

I guess my secret is out of the bags now... get it?

was stoked with the amount of attention the EF got, nice having something that stands out

thanks to everyone who helped with the packup also, made it a fairly quick job!

fantastic to see Dave made it out, obviously news is good in your area re: fires.
hpoefully Luke made it home.. the ED wasn't sounding the best lol.

I've got a bunch of pics, mostly from our display which i'll put up tomorrow when i'm at work.

by **pHaT`eL** » February 15th, 2009, 6:52 pm

Had a ball today, was mint seeing so many boosted E-Series

John, trip home was gold sitting in traffic watching people next to you go WTF!!!

by **EFFalcon** » February 15th, 2009, 6:54 pm

oh!
massive thanks to Pete for his help organising today.
helped big time!

haha yeah, that burgandy EL Ghia looked shocked

by **LUXO_8** » February 15th, 2009, 6:59 pm

was a great day.....huge surprise to see bags in johns car....thats mad!

hopefully someone got some good pics of the barge

by **Rmyers** » February 15th, 2009, 7:04 pm

Awesome day, had a great time. My camera was busted so i got no pics, but i pinched Shaun's mrs' camera for a while, so hurry up and upload those pics! John's car was an awesome surprise, was fun just sitting in the car waiting for people to walk by and errr (we need a word like "dose" for airbagging people lol). I was impressed with the lineup of boosted cars we had as well, hopefully by next year both rows can be boosted

. Was funny just listening to the comments about Beth's car, until they do a double take "bloody hell it's turbo!!". Was happy with the amount off attention mine got, alot more than last year i felt.

Anyways more pics!!!

by **t1MMy** » February 15th, 2009, 7:07 pm

I was suprised how easy and how fast we got in and out of the place,I thought it was going to be a massive sh** fight. Had a good day, heaps of awesome cars out there.
Might head off to the burns ward soon, LOL Just a tad burnt....

by **LOW_XR** » February 15th, 2009, 7:14 pm

i just walkin in door like 15 mins ago. big day the had to save luke (dandy) at the servo from a head gasket.

yeah me and brad turned round to look for my number plate i lost near lara exit lol. oh well.

will post pics soon.

by **Dezza** » February 15th, 2009, 7:25 pm

I just got back. It was a good day, but like most others I'm fairly sunburnt

Luke got back thanks to Mark towing him back on a trailer. Thanks to everyone who helped me get my car into position after getting there a little late (wasn't a lot of room to move the car around). John, your car looks awesome with the bags! Nice surprise there! Most of the cars looked great. Will post pics later

by **EFFalcon** » February 15th, 2009, 7:26 pm

shit, not good about Luke.
Then again, i'm sure he'll have it fixed by tomorrow

by **UNEZED** » February 15th, 2009, 7:31 pm

sucks to hear about luke but the car wasnt runnin good all day but atleast he got it back home
and yer most likely quick repair the way he works

by **pHaT`eL** » February 15th, 2009, 7:34 pm

LOL, saw Luke at a Servo, then passed him in a service lane further up the road, tripped me out. Luke was in some randoms front yard getting water

by **EFFalcon** » February 15th, 2009, 7:36 pm

Luke came into me at the Servo and goes 'got any oil'
i go nah... so he walks out and goes 'ah it'll just blow up!'

he obviously toook his chance

by **EFFalcon** » February 15th, 2009, 7:39 pm

Ooooh!
biggest dissapointment of the day...

TRIKSIX/SAPHRON WON AGAIN!!!!!!

by **LUXO_8** » February 15th, 2009, 7:44 pm

...with standard interior

by **Rmyers** » February 15th, 2009, 7:57 pm

Yer that's just not cool, 4 years in a row is a joke, you should win it once, then made elite so somebody else gets a shot. Is their any way we can winge to somebody that can influence the rules? Dont get me wrong the car is nice but people are not gunna bother entering anymore, there were at least 5 other E-series that i felt were nicer and better presented...

by **EFFalcon** » February 15th, 2009, 8:01 pm

I'm sure you can send suggestions etc to them.
look for some info on the website.
http://www.allfordday.org

I'm fairly sure similar things happen in other class'.

what surprised me with that was in the engine bay, while the covers were all nice and shiney, thepulleys were all dirty and dusty. While it had the bling, when you looked it was a bit average.

by **holmsy** » February 15th, 2009, 8:03 pm

i thought he was put in elite? obviously not

by **fordbaby** » February 15th, 2009, 8:05 pm

i dont think that boys car who won was anything special at all. maybe he has family or friends who help organise the day and the rig the judging........

by **EFFalcon** » February 15th, 2009, 8:07 pm

THere wasn't an 'Elite' Class, what they do is put 'Elite' cars near the judges etc.
they stilll get judged in their relevant class.

by **93edxr6** » February 15th, 2009, 8:21 pm

is that that gold el ef ? that was in street fords?

by **holmsy** » February 15th, 2009, 9:21 pm

yes yes it is

by **Phillis** » February 15th, 2009, 9:29 pm

i feel like an ass for not being as social as i wanted to. i was out till 2am last night and struggled to be a social little butterfly on 2hrs sleep. was an awsome day, some incredible cars out there.

i was stoked at a few randoms taking photos of my car. not sure weather it was of the car in it entriety or just the new wheels

Who is online
