i enteredd my van in the Figtree show in 1984 which was held on a roof top car park.
i cruised down from Liverpool with about 8 vans and on the way home there was a convoy of around 40 to 50 vans which ncluded members of both westside and pacific and several other clubs

I was wondering if anyone has any pics of the show?

I'm pretty sure that was one of the shows my old man was involved running. Will ask him over the next week or so if he has any photos.

Cheers

This is me out front of Bass Hill drive in for a van night
Figtree Show 1984 VAN340b

From memory it was a Red S or Safeway shop

There was a dark blue L34 right in the middle, a cream van with rams and a huge scoop and a mate had his HQ van (barbados sort of colour) which had those extra lower windows on the upper tailgate

on te way back i was in the middle and Neil in his silver Bedford as behind me. The cruise was going quite smooth until the front van (Neil from Westside, in a blue HQ) overtook a car that was going clow and all of a sudden everyone went nuts

I was doing 100mph at one stage and had a van pass me like i was standing still. Someone later told me it was turboed
