Back when it was VW Day

Throwback to March 2019:

The gloomy weather didn’t keep the enthusiasts away at the Day of the VW 2019, hosted by the Volkswagen Club of South Australia. Lined up with various Kombis and Beatles, spare parts vendors, and fresh coffee, there was something there for everyone. Standouts of the day had to be the black over ceiling wax red 1955 23 window Samba and the black Type 3 Panel Van. Special mention goes to the creative camouflage paint job on the Baja, which was rattle canned using tree leaves to create a stencil.

Online Car Shows Now Available

CarTorque now has Online Car Shows. Over the coming months we plan to launch a new online car show every couple of days. So keep checking CarTorque for the latest. See Shows

How to enter car Three Simple steps

How to vote Voting Is Easy

Why online shows? CarTorque is about supporting car enthusiasts in coming together to celebrate and share their passion. We believe in building real community - people actually getting together. So our number one priority will always be supporting and sharing real car shows and clubs and groups who regularly meet and share their passion in person.

However, with Covid, real shows and meetings are not possible or severely constrained, so we thought we might support your passion by giving you an online version of a show.

How does it work?

We set up the shows and they are listed at See Shows

You scroll through the current and upcoming shows. Find one you are interested in and add your car or simply check out the great cars listed.

If you want, vote for the best car.

When the show ends, all the votes are automatically tallied and you can see the results in the completed show listing.

You can't comment on cars but you can message the owner.

Simple and fun.

Your Privacy matters to us.

To use Online Car Shows you need to register on the site. When you register we only ask for a username (make it up), a location (suburb or town will be fine), a password and your email address. We do not sell your information, we do not track your use of the site and we will never send you any spam. The only time you will hear from us is if you ask us to reset your password or you have won a prize or to update you when we have changed the site.

Who sets up the shows?

CarTorque admin sets up each show. We plan in the future to let clubs and groups with a community on CarTorque to set up their own shows but for the moment it is limited to us.

However, if you have a show you would like to see or sponsor, drop us a note at Contact Us or call Tony Jackson on 0411232986

Autobarn Ringwood Fundraising BBQ & Show ‘n’ Shine

Perfect midwinter weather on Saturday 20th July for another Ringwood Autobarn Show n Shine. Running from 9am-5pm meant cars came and went but there was a great display from the Torana Owners Club for most of the day. All funds raised on the day went towards the Cancer Council.

National Motoring Heritage Day, Ipswich QLD

Picnic in The Park The smell of oil and fumes filled the air, the smell car enthusiasts love to wake up to as the National Motoring Heritage Day swung under way as at least 100 of South East Queensland’s best vintage cars rolled onto Cameron Park on the 19thof May. Music filled the air as Brisbane Cities Pipe Band gave the show a real taste of what they can do. Kids, families, and die hard car enthusiasts all had something to smile about with mouth watering treats from local food vans, free face painting and historic bus tours were underway while being treated to a beautiful crisp winters day. While taking in everything at the show the 1929 Dodge Brothers Model: Da Sports Roadster took the cake as my personal favourite. Coated in a brilliant green with accents of orange on the wheels made the car areal head turner.
