Meguiar's MotorEx 2005

The Expo of POWER and PASSION

Now in its fifth year, Meguiar's MotorEx attracted record crowds over the weekend of July 2 and 3, not to mention the best turn out of entrants, including cars, motorcycles and many new commercial traders.

The event continues to be a success with the motoring enthusiasts and builds on the tradition of fantastic growth that it has experienced from the first show in 2001!

A key feature of the show was the prestigious Meguiar's Superstars competition. The most highly contested ‘enthusiast’ award in Australia, Meguiar's Superstars recognises the nation’s best Street Machines, Hot Rods and Custom Motorcycles. This year, entrants set a new benchmark of quality, innovation and engineering. All entries were judged on quality of workmanship, attention to detail, innovation, level of engineering, use of custom-made components, extent of modification and degree of difficulty.

The 2005 Meguiar’s Street Machine Superstars Champion was Gary and Deby Myers, with their wild "Silver Bullet" mustang. Only a handful of points behind were the runners up of Laurie Grima's ‘55 Chev Coupe, and Paul McKennariery with his ‘48 Custom Hudson.

Mick Fabar was the 2005 Champion for Hot Rod Superstars with his immaculate A-Model Pick Up, "Swuoop".
Fabar was closely contested by the ’32 Ford Roadsters of Daniel Cassar and David Winter.

The first Meguiar's Superstars Champion for Custom Motorcycles was awarded to Wes Spark by the narrowest of margins for his radically designed and intensely engineered "Phat". Finalists included "Excalibur" by GLH Frames and 'Tresspasser" by Doc Hogs.

The three Superstars ‘Best Of Breed’ Champions each received $5,000 cash and a magnificent ‘masterpiece’ billet trophy. The other twenty Superstars Finalists in the three categories each received $1,500 cash and a commemorative jacket.
