Pickles to Auction Rare Collection of Vintage Vehicles In October











(PRWEB) October 8, 2007

Pickles Auctions is holding a special Vintage Vehicle, Stationary Engine and Veteran Machinery Auction at the South Coast Restoration Society, Pimpana, Queensland on October 27, 2007. The auction will feature many rare items from the collection of renowned Vintage Vehicle collector, Reg Schuster, plus a number of individual offerings from ten other private collectors.

Bruce Connors, Pickles Auctions Industrial Division Director, says the October auction, the first major vintage automobile auction held by Pickles for some time, will offer a unique collection of vintage vehicles.

“Pickles Auctions is excited to be auctioning this rare collection of vintage vehicles on behalf of renowned collector Reg Schuster and other vendors,” said Bruce, “Most of the cars on offer date from the 1920s and with nothing newer than 1939 in the auction catalogue this auction is going to be a real treat for vintage car lovers.”

Vintage collector Reg Schuster has been in the business of collecting and restoring vintage cars for the last 50 years. This auction will feature a number of Reg’s rare vehicles including Standard; Maxwell, Karrier, Stearns Knight and CarNation.

Also a highlight for vintage machinery enthusiasts will undoubtedly be the 1930 Dennis fire engine that comes complete with all hoses, pumps, ladders, and even a pair of brass helmets.

The vehicles on offer from other vendors include:

A rare, English built 1925 Hornsby – one of only two in Australia, among three worldwide.
A pair of unrestored 1926 Austins
1928 & 1930 Essex sedans
1931 Riley 9 Sports
1929 and 1939 Hudson Super Six
Stationary engines of all ages and stages of restoration

“A vintage collection this diverse is unlikely to be on offer again anytime soon, so if you have a passion for vintage vehicles and machinery, we’d thoroughly recommend you further investigate this auction,” said Bruce.

Car enthusiasts will also be able to participate in the vintage vehicle, stationary engine and veteran machinery auction in real-time over the internet through Pickles Live online auctions. For more information on how to register for this auction visit http://www.pickles.com.au

RacersReunion Vintage All-Star Clash Comes To Rockingam Speedway

RacersReunion Vintage All-Star Clash Comes To Rockingam Speedway











Myrtle Beach, SC (PRWEB) December 30, 2009

During the pre-race program for the American 200 ARCA Championship Race that took place at Rockingham this past October 11, 2009, spectators were treated to a Vintage Race Car Exhibition and Car Show. This exhibition was an extension of the RacersReunion Memory Lane Hall Of Fame induction ceremonies. Andy Hillenburg and Rockingham Speedway paid tribute to the inductees by honoring them during this Championship event.

Due to the positive results from that October 11th exhibition event, Hillenburg has decided to bring the vintage race cars back to The Rock to participate in the Second Annual Polar Bear 150 Event on January 1, 2010. Vintage Race Car drivers will be treated again to the thrill of turning laps at the famed Rockingham Speedway.

“We want to be able to show race fans the cars from the early years of racing,” said Hillenburg. “We also like the idea of giving these guys and gals who have preserved these old race cars an opportunity to show them off. I think everyone enjoys this kind of entertainment.”

And yes, there are some gals wheeling these vintage rides. Ronda McKnight of the East Coast Flat Head Club as well as Susan Kimel of the Carolina Vintage Stock Car Racing Association have made their presence known by winning their share of races against some of the best in the Vintage Racing ranks.

“All vintage race cars from any and all clubs are welcome at this free event,” said RacersReunion founder, Jeff Gilder. “Many who attended our October 11th exhibition have asked me when we could do this type of event again. Andy (Hillenburg) and I began planning to bring vintage race cars to the Polar bear Event the week following the first event. The vintage racing movement is growing faster than ever and these opportunities are important to its success. We (RacersReunion) will provide more opportunities like this in the future.”

There will also be a car show presented by Koss Motorsports as part of the festivities. All cars, show cars and vintage race cars, that pre-register will be given two tickets to the Polar Bear 150 good for the pits and grand stands. The show cars will also have the option to make some laps around Rockingham Speedway.

Details can be found on the events calendar by following the “Stock Car RacersReunion” link on RacersReunion.com.
