With just 10 days to go until the rebirth of the historic Lake Perkolilli race track, vintage vehicles are beginning to make the journey out to Kalgoorlie.

More than 100 pre-Word War II-era cars, motorbikes and aircraft will make their way to the Goldfields between now and September 12 for the highly-anticipated 2019 Red Dust Revival, marking 80 years since the track’s heyday came to an end.

The Kalgoorlie Miner can today bring you the first glimpse of some of the vintage machines descending on Lake Perkolilli next week to have a spin around the dry lake.

A handful of competitors turned out to Caversham on Saturday to get scrutineering out of the way early.

Among the vehicles were restored Model A and T Fords, Lagondas, Ballotts, and an Austin Seven, all originally built between 1913 and 1939.

For Perth-based Tim Dwyer, who is driving a 1923 Model T Ford, Perkolilli will be his first foray into the world of motor racing.

“It is my first go at any kind of racing or cars, but my dad and forebears have been involved for years,” he said.

“So it is the family history for me, and also the bizarre nature of it.

“I’m also a musician so I am hoping for a chance to play around the camp fire.”

At the other end of the spectrum is Paul Dean, whose Lagonda raced at Lake Perkolilli in the 1930s.

“This car was brought over to Australia in 1935 by a man called Tom Berry.

“He brought this car out to Lake Perkolilli and raced it there and around the houses in Albany.

“It was in the shed until 1993 when my dad gave it to me.”

The long range forecast is looking promising, with no significant rain forecast over Lake Perkolilli for the next two weeks.

The races will be hosted between September 12 and 15, with the main action to take place on the weekend.
