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!

The Australia Day Weekend is traditionally the last hurrah of the January
holidays.
The Twilight Hot Rod Show is held on the Sunday of this weekend in
Brisbane. The idea behind this summertime event is to gather together in
the cool of the afternoon, check out the rods and dig the bands. Who says
hot rod shows have to start at 8am in the morning?!
The Australia Day weekend is an ideal time to acknowledge our Aussie
motoring heritage and shake off those back to work blues.
