The sun was out and not a rainy cloud was to be seen at the inaugural instalment of Shannon’s Show ’n’ Shine Car, Truck and Bike Fest.

Vehicles including hot rods, motorbikes, utes, muscles, coupés and even trucks streamed through the gates of the Cobram Showgrounds before judging began on Saturday, March 22.

Organiser Andrew Gilmour said he was impressed by the great variety of vehicles.

“Given it was our first crack at a show ’n’ shine, I’d say it was a very successful day,” he said.

The morning was topped off around lunchtime when the judges named the winning entrants.

“We had a beautiful day, a beautiful venue, and we had a lot of positives,” Mr Gilmour said.

“I’d like to especially thank the major sponsor and minor sponsors, the Rotary Club members who participated, the outside volunteers, the 41-and-over Apexians and the car judges.

“Everyone performed magnificently.

“Without combined efforts, none of it would’ve happened.”
