The only thing I don't like about the NEW all british day is that the kings school wouldn't let them have the swapmeet, it used to be the best swap for pommy parts, it was small but wasent over run with Ford Holden & antiques.
I was at the meeting when they decided to go to the Kings school, The representative said they would pay the all british acosiation (I should have gone to school longer), what ever the takings were from the old swapmeet to can it.
I know it was dying a slow death & the move has saved it, it's just my thoughts on it.

It doesn't have the traditional swap meet but there's various Traders selling parts.
From memory:
Paul Corey,
JW Classic (Melbourne),
Electrical supplies (can't remember the name, but a swap meet regular),
Mountain(?) Motor Books,
Various detailing, T shirt/photo & regalia traders.
The T shirt/photo mob were taking photos of a few cars as they came through the gates. Barry paid $45 for a framed A3ish photo of the yellow convert.
Not as good as the usual swap meet, but that was getting smaller & smaller as time went on.

My mate & nieghbour paid 15 bucks for a white choke nob for his wolsley, Paul corey wouldn't budge on the price, he also wanted 50 bucks for a white gear nob, a bit rich for my mate on the day.

yeah i rekon u should get together with all the other pommy car clubs in sydney and organise a pommy swap, it wouldnt take a whole day to get through all the anteques and garage sales, and the rest of the day you could fit the parts to the car
