Vintage, veteran and classic vehicles will bring a bit of history to Geelong through a static car display.
Bellarine Historic Vehicle Club will host the free event from 10am to 2pm on Eastern Beach Road’s Customs Lawn on Sunday, December 1.
President Jan Clissold said there would be up to 13 vehicles on display, and she looked forward to people admiring the range of cars.
“There’s a character about old cars that you don’t see in the modern cars. There’s just something about them,” she said.
“The fun, laughter and pleasure on the kids’ faces when they see these old cars is great, and they can ask as many questions as they want.
“It gives us another chance to get out to the general public and show what vehicles are around because some have been around for a long time.”
Club member Gareth Bennett said every vehicle had its own story and that it was important to stay true to the individuality of the old cars.
“I enjoy driving them and, they may be slower, but you see more. You don’t just drive through and see nothing,” he said.
“My 1933 Dodge DP Sedan has been through three owners since new. The first owner, we don’t know about because he bought it pre-war. The second owner bought it straight after the war and then I bought it in 1996.”
The Bellarine Historic Vehicle Club is a multi-vehicle club and will celebrate its 10th anniversary next year.
