The annual event, scheduled for Sunday, February 2, is fast becoming the "must-see" motor festival in the country, with muscle cars, classic and historic cars and hot rods just the tip of the iceberg for what is on show.
Add to that, trucks, tractors, utes, motorbikes and race cars, and there is something for all variations of car lovers.
With more than 180 cars on display last year, event organisers are expecting an even greater turnout, with all display vehicles in the running to share in more than $2000 worth of prizes.
In a day of fun for the whole family, there will also be a swap meet, as well as market stalls featuring a variety of locally produced goods and crafts.
Other attractions include live music and dancing, a coffee van, wine tastings, and take-away food, while attendees can also enjoy lunch in the air-conditioned comfort of the café.
To display a vehicle, there is a $5 entry fee, while a gold coin donation from festival goers is required for entry, which will go towards the local CFA.
