A massive 179 vans were on show, with the visitors here until Monday.
Organisers said having close to 200 vans almost never happens.
The event was supposed to take place in Parkes last year but coronavirus unfortunately put a stop to that as it did with all events last year.
But organisers were keen to have the event go ahead in the town in 2021, and that it did at Easter.

I love sharing people's stories, particularly local stories that are special and important to the people of Parkes. If there is one thing I have learnt in my 10 years of community journalism, it's that stories are everywhere. All it takes is a good story teller to make it worth reading.
