Bounty Inducements

Wednesday 26th January - 2022

This year's Show will be our 6th Edition of the Sylvanvale Pre-WWII Vintage Car Show. The Show creates a field where up to a hundred of historically significant vehicles are displayed and now will be vying for various awards and accolades.


I have previously mentioned to you, that this will be the first year that we will be introducing judging of the Vintage Vehicles entries & awarding trophies for all the seventeen categories of vehicles.


To help build a sense of pride and achievement that accompanies a prize winning entry there will be a First Prize and Runner-up Prize awarded in each best-of-category. Both winners will be rewarded with a trophy to take home to add to their collection on their mantle shelf.

For the outstanding car that steals the Show, I've created a one-off 'First Choice Vintage Vehicle of the Show' that will be chosen by me. Not only will they win a really nice piece of large, shiny silverware - they will also receive a bonus $200.00 cash in the hand, not to shabby!


Recently, I was fortunate enough to win trophies at this year's All Ford Day with my 1931 Model A Ford, 4-door, (all steel) slant window, Town Sedan, I was so impressed with the quality & design of these trophies that were supplied by Trophy Mart.


Keeping all this in mind Steve Core and I decided that it was time to take a drive out to Leumeah in Sydney's growing south-western suburbs to check out John Keats at his business. (see photo). I decided that John Keats from Trophy Mart was our man and they are going supply us with around thirty-five trophies for our Show.
