IT’S PARTY TIME…

AND YOU’RE INVITED

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away….

It’s been 40 years since these opening words to the first Star Wars movie crawled across the screen and fans still party on when each new episode is released.

Car and motorcycle enthusiasts are also ever keen to throw a party, be it birthdays, anniversaries or special events and 2017 gives us plenty of reasons to celebrate. This year marks the

25th Anniversary of the Honda CBR FireBlade superbike
50th Anniversary of the AC Cobra
50th Anniversary of the Falcon GT
50th Anniversary of the Holden Torana
60th Anniversary of the ’57 Chevrolet
80th Anniversary of the ’37 Ford.

After celebrating its 20th Hot Rod and Street Machine Spectacular last year, WA Hot Rod Promotions Inc. this year comes of age, being 21 years old. According to social mores, that means we’re all grown up now and ready to share the best of fun and excitement with all of our friends. By promoting ‘Party On’ as the official show theme for 2017, we invite you all to join us and continue the celebrations. Whether it be a personal special event, an historical observation or a unique reflection, let’s all have a ball and party on for the whole weekend. I know WAHRP will.
