Information wanted

Motoring Historians WA is keen to collect information of an automotive historical nature with particular concern about Western Australia. We are looking for:

•  Photographs - local cars, dealerships, races, shows, club events, etc
•  Printed matter - programmes, books, magazines, etc
•  Dealer information - sales data and records, photos, etc
•  Anecdotal information - motoring stories from long ago
•  Motoring event information - races, rallies, shows, etc
•  Movie and video - events, drives, club activities, etc

Any leads to useful information such as anything listed above would be appreciated and followed up with discretion.

Western Australia has over a century of motoring history. A great deal of information is thrown away or otherwise lost as generations pass. We ask for everyone's help in saving such information, however little or inconsequential you might think it is. What old car photos or Western Australian automotive information do you, your parents or grandparents have hidden away?

The collection and proper archiving of this information is one of the core aims of the group.

Several of our members have extensive collections of their own and the MHWA allows them to share the contents of these collections when possible and as needed.

If you have anything that you think may be of interest, please contact any of our Committee members.

Can you help?
