Back to the Bush Auto Festival 2026 will be held on the usual third Saturday of the month being Saturday 17th October 2026, if you attended Back to the Bush Auto Festival 2025 and enjoyed yourself, let everyone know that the Barraba Rsl & Rec Club in Barraba NSW is the place to be.

I have to address something very important. Yesterday I posted a video of this car and at the time of writing this post it has just over 300k views. I took a look in the comment section of the video and was totally disgusted at the derogatory and uncalled for comments directed towards the car and the bloke that owns it.

It takes decades and thousands of hard earnt dollars to build a car of this caliber. Not to mention the hard work and effort that goes into it. If it wasn't for the determination of the owner, we may not have seen this car at ChromeFest. There was a mad rush the night before to get a carb sorted for the brand new engine build that went into it. It got fired up for the first time and entered the show the next day, untuned and only just running. Which is risky and impressive considering it has the potential to make over 800hp on the bottle.

So respect and appreciation needs to be shown regardless of whether you like a car or not. Be fkn nice!!

We've had two weeks to recover from another successful Back to the Bush Auto Festival 2025 but before I post photos of the winners, I just want to thank everyone who has made the event what it is today. I've written this 3 times already and cant do any of you justice without it dragging on. First and foremost I want to thank the Aircooled Assembly Inc crew for what you all contribute throughout the year to make our events happen, Barraba Rsl & Rec Club for the use of their facilities, the sponsors and donors for their assistance either financially or in kind, without this, we could never maintain the quality of event we pride ourselves on. All of the vendors and vehicle owners who go to so much effort to come and set up their stalls or their vehicles, because let's be honest without you we just wouldn't have an event. So thankyou all.
If i have missed anyone, I apologise, there are so many people that make it possible that I'm bound to miss someone.

"People ask me why I'm always happy. And I tell them it's because I got to open my eyes this morning" - Crazy Pete.

I had a very real and interesting conversation with this bloke at ChromeFest . Life has thrown him some very challenging times, but Pete still looks at life like every day is a gift.

Pete was telling me that he and his motorcycle mates' band together to raise money for local children's hospitals and charities! bloody legends!!!

A massive weekend down at ChromeFest!! Speed and Chrome had the opportunity again to work with Central Coast Council and the organizers of ChromeFest to capture the event. With well over 500 cars entered both Saturday and Sunday, and thousands of people wandering around. The atmosphere was totally awesome, but this also meant, we did have our work cut out for us!

We have spent the last few days in the studio editing and going through thousands of images to put a photo set together for our client, ChromeFest. What this means is that for all those that asked where they will see the photos. We will have to wait and see what ChromeFest chooses to do with them.

So Aircooled Assembly Inc holds regular meat raffles at the Rec Club in Barraba. This goes towards funding the awesome event Back to the Bush Auto Festival

Here is 25cm of the Meter of meat tray prize we were very fortunate to win. To win this came as a shock because I couldn't win an argument! Between us and Brad from CoolAz hotrods, we pretty much cleaned up the raffles 😂

Wow what a weekend Back to the Bush Auto Festival was! A huge thanks to Aircooled Assembly Inc for having us hang out with them this weekend. I even got the honor of helping judge the car show, which was a very hard thing to do given the caliber of cars on display.

For those that don't know what Back to the Bush is all about, its a 100% free event with a massive car show, rides, live music and a huge fireworks show in the evening. This is held in Barraba and is tirelessly hosted by The Aircooled Assembly car club to help the local rural community of Barraba thrive.

A huge special thanks to the Denyer Mechanical Repairs family for hosting us and all our hotrod mates at their house over the weekend. What can I say, country hospitality is second to none and Ally and Phil opened up their home for us and all our hot rod mates to stay and keep our cars safe and dry should the rains come.

Go for a drive and check out these little towns! Or even better go to Back to the Bush Auto Festival next year!
