Big car show for Cape Town

Featuring close to a 1000 vehicles exhibited by no fewer than 40 motor clubs, the event will include street rods, racing cars, vintage motorcycles, military vehicles, radio controlled models and a miniature car show display.

Other entertainment will be a mock battle staged by the Cape Heritage Society, the Cape 4x4 Club displaying their vehicle capabilities, a Highland pipe band, an Alsatian dog show and some live good old rock ‘n roll music to keep spectator toes tapping.

The Franschhoek Motor Museum will be showing some of the finest classic cars in South Africa alongside marque clubs such as MG, Triumph, Alfa-Romeo, Borgward, GSM, Morris Minor, Jaguar, Sunbeam and many more.

In addition, stalwarts of the Early Ford Car Club and Crankhandle Club will boast a turn out of some 100 cars of yesteryear, plus many more vehicles coming from as far a field as George, Gauteng and the West Coast.

Included amongst these vehicles are some of the oldest Rolls-Royce, Bentley and Mercedes-Benz cars.

The public will also be able to meet and be photographed with Motor Racing Legends of the Past, as well as have caricatures of their favourite drivers sketched by a prominent artist.

Entrance tickets cost R30 for adults and R10 for children.
