Mr Neumann, who is a truck driver by trade, has delivered plenty of hay bales to remote Australian communities, and consistently goes out of his way to support drought-stricken farmers.
“Without the farmers, we wouldn’t have anything that we have today,” he said.
Whether it be in his truck or his modified Holden Commodore ute, Mr Neumann has joined in on plenty of hay runs throughout Australia to bring the precious commodity to struggling farmers in the Central West.
Through entering the ute show, set to be held at Coolac’s Beehive Hotel, Mr Neumann will be combining a love of cars with his unwavering support for farmers.
“It’s a great time for everybody to interact, especially with farmers that are doing it tough,” he said.
“They can come out and have a beer with everyone, while seeing what we’re doing for them.”
Mr Neumann’s ute has one of the loudest six-cylinder engines in the country, and has participated in a number of ute shows across the country.
“We have a passion for it, and most ute show events raise money for a number of different charities,” he said.
