Motoring enthusiasts are putting extra shine on their prized cars, trucks and bikes ahead of an annual fundraiser in Craigieburn later this month.

The Craigieburn Car, Truck and Bike Show will be held at Craigieburn Central on Sunday, February 27, bringing together motoring enthusiasts to raise money for the Isabella and Marcus Paediatric Brainstem Tumour Fund.

Organiser Jim Overend said the show, which is in its seventh year, was born out of his love of cars, bikes and helping the community.

The Hume councillor said he started the event as a way of bringing the Craigieburn community together.

“It’s been great for the community,” he said.

“It draws quite a crowd.

“There will be plenty of cars and trucks on show.”

Trophies and doors prizes will be presented throughout the day.

The Craigieburn Car, Truck and Bike Show will be on 10am to 2pm. Entry is $20 per car and truck, $10 per bike and free for the general public.
