THE Old Wheelers Club will celebrate its 40th anniversary in October.
The club was born out of a need to create a safe social gathering for lovers of classic vehicles.
In June 1986, 26 vintage enthusiasts met to encourage the ownership, use, restoration, and preservation of motor vehicles older than 25 years.
Today, that dream lives on at the club’s premises, where several old cars, historic mechanics’ tools, fuel pumps, and other automotive relics are on display for new generations to appreciate.
The club held its winter ‘bonnets up’ event last weekend, allowing owners to park and showcase their vehicles to visitors.
Chairperson Rainer Rusch says anyone with a vehicle or motorbike older than 25 years is welcome to display it during October’s celebrations.
