Last year’s event saw an impressive 50 cars and 30 bikes on display at Proserpine Showgrounds and this year should be even bigger.
Organised by the Whitsunday Old Iron Restorers Club, the event is run by volunteers and member Lyn Burke said there will be numerous things to do on the day.
“The tractor pull is going to be entertaining and there's free events for the children to keep them occupied,” said Lyn.
“The Pioneer Valley Machinery Preservations Society Rally are brining all their stationary engines, really old engines that will be running and going, I think it'll be a vehicle-lovers paradise, to be truthful!”
One of the engines on display is from 1908, and it still runs today!
There will also be face painting, a train ride and a petting zoo to keep all the kids entertained.
Experienced judges will be present and awards will be given to overall car and bike winners.
There will also be an opportunity to vote in the people’s choice category.
Music by local band Three Mile Creek will start at 6pm.
It’s $5 to get in and cash is preferred on entry.
