Default entering cars in show and shines and entering teardrop vans in vintage shows

hi everyone

many of you probably know by now that have got a 03 ba fairmont ghia and have a few questions.

with the south australia show and shines is it possible to enter a car of that vintage in the shows once cleaned up and is presentable.

reason for asking is that at a few shows in kadina have seen a few ba/bf, even a au and e series, may have seen a fg or 2.

many of you also know that while am working on the plan for the ed (which also will be old enough for the cornish festival cavalcade) and not giving up at all it however will take a while probably and just thought of entering the ba in shows that will allow a car that vintage until having the ed.

which car shows will take a b series.

also needing help on a few things with teardrop vans.

with the cavalcade in the copper coast in south australia as many may know was wondering if you could enter vintage looking teardrops without entering the car towing it if you dont have one old enough to enter.

can just the teardrop be entered in cavalcade or does car towing it need entering and does car towing it have to be entered or can any car new or old thats capable of towing it tow the entered teardrop in cavalcade.

if you did enter a vintage looking teardrop does it have to have vintage lighting or can modern lighting be fitted.

if anyone knows answers and is able to help itd be much appreciated.

thanks for helping in anyway you can

hi

have done a facebook comment to all ford day and asked them and waiting to hear back, also posted on viscount van page asking about entering teardrops and waiting to hear back.

might email the wallaroo cavalcade and council and cornish festival and put it through as urgent high priority enquiry and explain circumstances see what they say.

want the van and will be getting/building one but grandparents health problems might mean having to build something easy to store when time comes that they have to shift out their house and no longer will be able to stay overnight when doing the volunteer work and had that thought just to get through until having something old enough to enter in vintage and cavalcade.

No problems entering a B series at the AFD.
