Welcome to Car Church Community
Car Church has always been about more than cars.
It’s about the early mornings, the familiar faces, the conversations in car parks, and the shared respect for the time, effort, and stories behind every car.
The 2026 Community Calendar came from that same place.
Every photo in the calendar was taken by Chris (Filianos Media) at local meets across our region — moments captured as they happened.
The cars featured aren’t here because they’re “perfect”, but because they’re part of our local scene and the people behind them keep showing up.
This community page is where we’ll be sharing those stories.
Throughout 2026, we’ll be featuring the owners of the cars in the calendar — their builds, their journeys, and the personal stories that don’t always fit into a social post. Alongside this, we’ll be releasing a series of video features so you can put faces to the names and hear directly from the people who make the scene what it is.
Thank You.
None of this happens without the people who’ve backed it.
A massive thank you to Deb, Kristy, Chris, Sean, Mel, Nathan, Macca, Paul, Phil, Lincoln, Missy, James, Casper, Peter, Leasha and to all the regulars and supporters who’ve been there from the beginning — turning up, supporting each other, and helping build something that genuinely feels like a community.
This calendar, and this space, is for you.
From Chris:
THANK YOU
Filianos Media is still in its early stages, but it has already grown a lot from when it first started.
What began as simply turning up with a camera has become something more intentional and refined over time. I’m still learning, still improving, and still pushing myself to be better than I was yesterday.
I believe in reinventing myself every year, not for attention, but to keep things fresh and to continue growing creatively.
This project is part of that evolution. Thank you to everyone who has trusted me with their cars, supported the work, or encouraged me along the way.
A genuine thank you to Will from Car Church Industries for the opportunity and belief in what I’m building. Lincoln, KustomKris, Vella Media, Martin, Nathan, Mozemocraft, and Ikes Diecast - thank you to the other media creatives I’ve met so far, the photographers and videographers who share knowledge, inspire growth, and remind me that there’s always another level to reach.
This is still just the beginning.
Chris
