Title: Marques in the Park 2017
Post by: Noid on September 26, 2017, 08:34:35 PM: Hey Guys/Gals

I’m planning to go to this event again this year, it’s a car show featuring all makes and models of vehicles. They can be concourse to still being restored condition, motor bikes are also on show. The location is great (John Knight Park – ACT) with plenty of shade. Its entry is gold coin donation and it runs from 10am until 3 pm. You can also come and go throughout the day. Last year there were two Beddies featured and it would be good if a few more made it along. So if you’re thinking of coming this way see if you can schedule it in at the same time. The picture is of the two vans there last year, one being mine :).

When: Sunday 12 November 2017
Cost: Gold coin donation
Time: 10 am
Location: John Knight Memorial Park, Townsend Place,Off Aikman Drive, Belconnen

Hope to see you there.

The challenge is out for next year, so if your looking to make a trip to Canberra schedule it in. Anyway here's the pic's to prove it :)

Post by: Noid on December 02, 2017, 12:45:00 PM: While its not a Bedford, I met Patrick at Marques in the park. He is restoring a Ford Thames Van, it has a soft spot for me because it was the first make of van I owned. You don't see many around now days so to see one in Canberra is very special. Hopefully it will be running in time for next years events. Its running a Holden 186 at the moment.
