Mr Fondacaro said he restored the cars for the pure enjoyment of driving them.
He said the car was a hit with the public.
“To me, the car is great to drive,” Mr Fondacaro said.
“The public love it as well and I get many admiring stares and thumbs-up when they see it on the road.
“The car does have a bit of grunt, but I don’t have any interest in racing it.”
Organisers will select about 200 vehicles for inclusion in the Motor Show from a range of eras, from pristine pre-1940s historics to modern supercars, giving the public a great insight into motoring history.
Perth Speed Fest will be held on December 13 at Perth Motorplex.
