Annual 'Show Us Your Car Night' a big success

Nearly 140 classics cars and motorcycles took centre stage at the North Eastern Car Club's annual Show Us Your Car Night on Wednesday.

The display was held at the club's Tarrawingee headquarters, and despite the extreme heat, the biggest collection of cars and bikes yet seen were presented to a large group of enthusiasts.

This was the sixth year that the car show has been held, and North Eastern Car Club spokesman, Jeff Whitten, said it was once again a huge success.

"Our vehicle numbers were up slightly from last year, which is very pleasing for the club," he said.

"The hot weather no doubt kept a number of vehicles and spectators away, but overall the night was very well received."

The North Eastern Car Club is north east Victoria's oldest car club, having been established in 1953.

With around 200 members, the club caters for members with an interest in all forms of motoring and motorsport, and provides a wide range of events catering for drivers as young as 12 years of age.
