Default Absolute Pace at Motorclassica Show Melb 25th - 27th October

I will be down at Motorclassica Show in Melbourne from Friday 25th - Sunday 27th.

Will have the PACE 427 and also PACE Kirkham on display.

First time we have been to this event and pushing hard to promote our business and products.

Won't be taking any of my guys as I want them in the shop focussed on our customer deliveries.

So just coming down with my father and look to have the assistance of a couple of generous locals.

Full details on the Motorclassica web site:

Motorclassica - The Australian International Concours d'Elegance & Classic Motor Show Royal Exhibition Building, Carlton Gardens, Melbourne, Australia 21 - 23 October 2011

Good luck with it Craig.

I've been to the last couple, and I'm every chance to pop in and say "hi" next weekend.
... only thing stopping me now are 2 yr-old kid B'day parties

Was going to go too, craig. Will bring the family so you can help me argue that a Pace 427 is a better investment than a new kitchen :-)

Guy, I think you should take a binding vote whilst you are with a "safe" crowd

Mmmm I am being distracted from this Thread by the 1000's of Asian women whom apparently will love me after I look at their profiles.. above.

Now they are advertising on the Australian site looking for a Cobra owner to share nights on the rug in front of an open fire, candle light romantic dinners or long walks on the beach..

Wrong site as we are car owners, we are in our garages working on our Cobras.

Mmmm - perhaps I do need someone to hand me tools and get beer..

Craig's display of the Pace 427 looks amazing and the polished Kirkham stands outs from other side of the Building. Both cars are drawing in lots of people and Friday is the slowest day of the show.
So many great classic cars at the show.
My favorite besides the Pace 427 was the SL190 Mercedes.
Craig, Good luck with the rest of the Show and I hope you still have a voice?
Below are a few pics, Enjoy.
