Thomas Parker Rare Spares

The history of the Rare Spares brand is long and colourful. It is a story about passionate car enthusiasts who began sourcing spare parts to keep their classic cars on the road, and how, nearly 50 years on it is the same desire to keep classic cars alive that drives the business today.

In our newly completed video documentary, we felt it appropriate to pay tribute to the guys who steered the company from its early days as a cottage industry in the fledgling restoration market, to what it is today, the foremost restoration component supplier in Australasia.

Follow the journey from the very beginning, hearing stories from those who were there from the start. Listen to Australian Motor Sport Hall of Fame member John Bowe talk about how important some of these components have been to keeping his racing cars on the track. Learn how innovation and technology have helped change the way Rare Spares provides product to customers.

More than just a part in a project, we at Rare Spares and RSP Automotive and Industrial are very proud of our achievements and hope you enjoy the accompanying presentation recounting our journey: Survivor – The Rare Spares Story.
