Many people having fond memories of the cars that were once made in Australia.
"People who grew up in the 60s and 70s would remember when those three manufacturers competed with one another," he said. "It's a tribute to that era."
Mr Costello said he was "impressed with the turn up from the Chrysler people."
The oldest car at the event was an old Holden from the 1950s.
"There is a really strong enthusiast follow for classic cars in Tasmania," Mr Costello said.
Antonio Di Vona spent three and a half years rebuilding his 1971 VH Charger.
"This is my first restoration to this extent," he said.
