[edit] About ToyoShow
ToyoShow is an Adelaide based car show, for Toyota Enthusiasts. Entrance is available for both Toyota built cars, and 'Toyota aspirated cars', which are cars built by other manufacturers, but fitted with major mechanical components built by Toyota, such as engines and gearboxes. There are many classes of entry catering from everything from stock examples, daily drivers and all out show cars.
The first ToyoShow was held in February in 2006, and attracted approximately 40 entrants to its debut cruise and show and shine.
[edit] History
ToyoShow was started in 2006.
The first year was held at Birdwood Motor Musseum, in South Australia. The Show was held over 2 days, with a cruise on the saturday and a show and shine on the Sunday.
The show was started and organized by Sean Basford, to be run with the help of Celica Car Club of South Australia but due to some organisational problems, the show was later organized by Toyota Car Club.net.
