The day is only half over for Motorfest Maitland but hundreds of people have already poured through the gates to get up-close-and-personal with some of the region’s coolest cars.
While hotrods are out in force this morning, there’re plenty of legendary Australian street machines as well.
Some cars are beyond compare – among them Kevin Ryan’s 1913 Fiat. The century-spanning journey of Mr Ryan’s car started in Italy and almost ended after 50 years of stagnation in a shed at a farm in Somersby.
