Gold Coast Project Partner Night

On Thursday 23rd October Rare Spares Gold Coast held a Project Partner night for Rare Spares Loyalty Club and Rare Owner members on a perfect spring evening. Attendees were able to access a store wide 20% discount for the evening, with many eager to access the huge savings, scooping up some bargains for their own projects. The Kustoms of Australia Gold Coast car club was happy to be involved, cooking a delicious BBQ for those in attendance. John Bowe was the special guest for the evening and spent time signing autographs and mingling with the crowd who were keen to hear tales from the racing legend. Rare Spares Gold Coast store owner Reg Vine was keen to get involved himself by debuting his just completed, fully restored 1956 Corvette. “It was great to bring the corvette out finally. JB absolutely loved it and even took some selfies in it!” laughed Reg Vine. Another attraction for the evening was the great prizes on offer. A double pass to the gold Coast 600, a Rare Spare merchandise pack and a $100 Rare Spares voucher were all given away to lucky winners.  “It was a fun relaxed evening and we look forward to the next one.” It’s free to join the Rare Spares Loyalty Club and you can sign up to receive exclusive invites to upcoming Rare Spares events and have access to prizes and huge discounts.

It’s absolutely fantastic and recognises the hard work we have put in” said Waldie. “We have been close before, winning the runner up prize on a previous occasion but it’s great to finally get the award this year.” “It was a close call this year to determine the winner, but Rare Spares Brisbane South ticked all the boxes and exemplified dedication and improvement and they are always striving for excellence” said Melissa McVeigh, Marketing Manager/Director of Rare Spares. Rare Spares Gold Coast received the runner up award at the AGM however store Co-Director Reg Vine was unfortunately unable to attend the event, with the award being accepted by Bruce Waldie on behalf of Reg Vine. “We were blown away with receiving the runner up prize and we certainly weren’t expecting it” said Vine. Rare Spares actively works with Distributors to ensure they have the support they need to run a successful business. “Rare Spares feels more like a family than a company and I like to think we all look after each other. They are very supportive and are always just a phone call away” said Vine. Rare Spares are proud of their Distributor network and want to congratulate Rare Spares Brisbane South and Rare Spares Gold Coast for their outstanding performances over the past year.
