Drive to Geelong Musuem of Motoring & Torquay (Torquay Motor Show)

Geelong/Torquay Drive 

Saturday, 9 February 2019 

Starting at Lorbek Luxury Cars, 30 Prohasky St, Port Melbourne VIC 3207 

Meet at 12:30pm to depart at 12:45pm 

This is a companion event to the Sunday Torquay Motor Show event. You can choose to do one, or both, but please register for each event as appropriate.

Take a trip to "the other side of the bay" (for many of our members) for a visit to the newly re-opened Geelong Musuem of Motoring, drive down to Torquay,  have dinner in Torquay and stay the night ready for the Torquay Motor Show on Sunday.  You are welcome to do as much or as little of the activities as you wish.

The Geelong Musuem of Motoring (Western Height Secondary College, Waymouth Street, Hamlyn Heights - just 5 minutes off the Geelong Ring Road) has just reopened after nearly 3 years without a home.  Now housed in unused carpeted school rooms the Ford Musuem collection has been incorporated into the musuem. As well as some excellent displays of unique Ford items, including the last off the line Territory, ute and Falcon sedan, there is a number of privately owned cars and memorabilia on show. 

Entry is $10 payable at the Musuem.

We will then have afternoon tea/coffee in the Cafe on Vines, a short walk across the car park in the neighbourhood shops.

You then have the choice to stay and have dinner later on at the Torquay Hotel (see menu here).

A further choice to stay overnight ready for the Torquay Motor Show on the Sunday (please book your own rooms, hotel bookings are hard to find in Torquay at this time so we have not been able to hold rooms, but the Torquay Hotel has motel rooms available at the moment at $180 per room - ph: 03 5261 2001)
