Twilight Hot Rod Show  2010

Thank you to all the Aussie classics, American iron, hot rods, rat rods and kustoms that came out to the third annual Twilight Hot Rod Show. The fins and chrome glistened in the afternoon sun, the bands rocked to the rafters, the market stalls were full of colour and fun.

The new location of the Rocklea Showground ticked all the right boxes, including ample space and parking, shade, patron comfort and venue location. It was a fantastic day all 'round!
