Every two years the Calacade of Cars happens as part of the Kernewek Lowender event in the Copper Triangle, Wallaroo, Moonta, Kadina SA.

I have attended everyone since 97 as an entrant.

Always a fun event, it used to coincide with the Adelaide Cup weekend but that got moved to 'Mad March'

Which is sad as many used to go up for a day or two and enjoy the Cornish Festival. There is a special event at each main town over the festival.

Todays event had probably 800 cars all over 30 years old, some very much older!!

The event went off very well, a nice uninterupted cruise around the area with no hold ups, even to get into the Kadina Oval

 

 

Pics;

1 Auburn S/C. This car has been around a long time.

2 Inter Loadstar. I drove one in thbe 70s the same color though tipper. Literally finished this morning

3 Track Pack Pacer

4 Orchid

5 Rugby

6  E37 Charger. 2 owner unrestored. Sold new and used by Clem Smith
