Old Bar Kombi weekend photos
Menangler - October 3rd, 2005 at 08:21 PM

We had a great weekend at the Old Bar Kombi weekend, took the Westy up, and on Saturday parked it with around 130 other Kombis and owners, there were people and Kombi's everywhere!!

I headed from Nambucca to Macksville on Saturday morning and followed the green LOW067 until it turned off at the Macksville swimming pool.

I think it met up there with Laurie's(?) blue camper, from Nambucca.

Yeah great weekend was had by all I hope, I will try and get permission to use a couple of the official photos from the weekend. At this stage they are talking about hosting the kombis again next year and possibly annually (hopefully it will be a little bit more organised) so pencil it in on your calendars and gee up some mates to come along as well.
Old Bar has probably never seen so many people in the town on the one day, you could hardly move on "KOMBI ROW" so thanks to all those people who made the effort to come along, it was great to meet a few of you guys.

Cheers

Here are a few of pics of the kombi line-up if you were to put the three of these together you get an idea of how far they strecthed out. There is another row that is hidden by this row.
More pics later

this one is a work horse. has lived across from my parents house for ever. we moved there in 78. ron is a painter from taree, and this is his baby. gets used everyday, always outdoors, and is good example to boot.
