Default Hoppers Crossing Car Meet Last Tues Every Month

Anybody going to the car meet @ hoppers on Tuesday the 30th?

It's pre-1984 so people with eseries cant enter.. however if you're into older cars it's awesome for a look!

It's in Hoppers Crossing on the Old Geelong Road in a big homemaker center place right near the bridge/overpass (man what is that exit called?!) it's an absolutely massive carpark which gets completely packed out every month (you have to park down the street and walk up!)

Usually gets pretty packed by around 7... cars start leaving around dark.

I'll see if I can find some photos from previous months around.. it is DEFINITELY worth the drive if you're coming from Melbourne.

I help to set this one up. It is a good one to go to, plenty of tough cars the only draw back is the hour it takes to get there that time of night.

i'm there every month, its definately worth going. its a pre-84 show, however, if you pay to park in the car park, people walk around and admire whats on show as well. i think in the summertime, its worth getting there around 6-6:30.

please no stupid behaviour as we have had police down to help keep the show ******** free.
