Well the 3rd annual NQPFC All ford Day, the 2nd presented by the Nth QLD Performance Ford Club & the Townsville Show Society has been Run and Won.

Saturday 8th Sept saw 162 Fords pulled out from their hiding spots cleaned & polished up to displayed to an appreciative public.
This number rivals all other car shows seen outside of the South East Corner of the State.

Entrants came from Townsville, Ingham, Charters Towers, Richmond, Ayr, Mackay, Rockhampton, Cairns, Port Douglas and many places in between.

The day kicked off at midday with all Entrants in and set up on the well presented lawns of the Townsville Show grounds to await the public.
And they certainly weren't disappointed.
Chris Condon and his Team at the showgrounds should be proud of their efforts.

The committee members worked tirelessly to ensure the day went to plan, with events such as the Kill a Commodore being a great success.

The public also got to see some horsepower being utilized to the extreme with the Go to Whoa and Power Skid events attracting a roaring crowd and was eventually taken out by Hot Rod Builder and Owner Rod Churchwood in his Electric Blue T Bucket in a time of 4.50 seconds and the next closest was a time of 5.19 Seconds.

Two weddings called in to the Showgrounds for a Tour and some photos to remember on their special day.
One of which had the spectators flocking as the bridal party drove up in a Limited edition 40th Anniversary Ford GT Courtesy of Carmichael Ford.

The cars & Rods ranged from a little ford Anglia up to a Second World War Ambulance and in between seen a range of classic Mustangs, Thunderbirds, Coupes, TBuckets, Roadsters, Falcons, Station wagons, Utes, Hardtops and assorted other Fords and some Very Stout Ford Drag Racing Cars.

A special mention to Harold Campbell in his Rat Rod which has been thrown together in just three weeks to make the day.

Others have spent years and many thousands of dollars to ensure that their car is the way they want it and admired by all.

In all the day was a great success and a big thanks to the major sponsor for the day AutObarn who also ran the Sound off which seen contestants from Townsville, Ayr & Bowen Compete for prizes in a number of Categories.

Over 100 prizes totalling some $6000.00 were drawn and given away in appreciation of the time and effort taken by those who put their pride and joy on display for the public to come and inspect.

The overall day was a resounding success and the planning now begins on the 3rd annual Nth Queensland Performance Ford Club All Ford Day.
