Classic cars and bikes draw a crowd

These 'gangsters' displayed their 1934 Ford Hot Rod which honours American bank robber John Dillinger.

Classic car lovers flocked to the 11th annual Hobsons Bay Men’s Shed Classic Car and Bike Show and Family Fun Day event on Sunday 26 February.

There were more than 150 cars and motorbikes on display as well as family entertaiment, live music, food vans and a sausage sizzle.

Group secretary Lou Artz said organisers were very happy with the event and all proceeds would be donated to local charities.

He encouraged anyone interested in classic vehicles to join the motoring group.

The group’s monthly Torque meeting will be held at the Men’s Shed at 280 Queen Street, Altona on Sunday, March 5.

The club run to the Bostock Reservoir is being held on Sunday, March 19 to raise money for two members who have entered a car in the Mystery Box Rally, which raises money for cancer research.

The group will host its container sale on Saturday, March 25, where members will be selling off excess tools at bargain prices.
