On a beautiful Autumn Canberra day the Italian car owners of Canberra converged on the lawns of Old Parliament House and displayed their cars for all to see! 
Todays post looks at FIAT's -  future posts will look at De Tomasos, Alfa Romeos, Lancias, Maseratis and of course - Ferraris!

Queanbeyan Swap Meet 2014 - General Motors and Holden's

The Queanbeyan Swap Meet is held in conjunction with two car shows - the Ford, GM, Chrysler Day and the American Car Day. This post is mainly about the Holden's that were on display on the Saturday. I will post about GM cars that appeared on the Sunday, in the near future. The focus of this post is mainly on Aussie GM cars.
Very nice two door convertible 48-215 conversion
 
 This Pontiac sounded great, rumbling around the oval

Queanbeyan Swap Meet 2014 - Fords


 Only Falcon XABC Coupe on the day - but it was a ripper

The Queanbeyan Swap Meet is held in conjunction with two car shows - the Ford, GM, Chrysler Day and the American Car Day. This post is about the Ford's that were on display on the Saturday. I will post about Ford cars that appeared on the Sunday, in the near future. The focus of this post is Aussie and English fords (OK, a few US cars as well).

Interesting profiles. Only the front panels and floorpan are interchangeable between the sedan and coupe. Even the windscreen glass is different.
