Cool! Just printed out my reg. form.

AND.. the Website Rules!!

 

Who went last year ,is it mainly pre 60s, rats or traditionals .
I did notice the pre 72 cut off . I would like to go if its car people freindly not a secular deal thanks .c

 

Good show run by a good man....can't go wrong

 

We had a pretty good mix of cars last year. We had everything from a 1902 Olds, 1926 Packard to traditional rods, street rods and some muscle cars.

This is a city sponsored event so we must let everyone in but the "focus" is on '72 and older so we don't end up with a bunch of boom boxes with flip-out video screens or a line of cars with a couple hundred miles on the odometer and a payment book in the glove box. This is a car show featuring older cars for the people who build and drive them.

Please come on out, I don't think you will be sorry. Combined with the street festival we have something for almost everyone.

Speedrome thanks for the insight im there .c

 

Great! Glad to hear it.

I'll be there again. The show is great, but my favorite part is the soda fountain! Good food, and orange cream soda!!! I think I had 3 last time, haha. It's awesome.

 

Sounds like a good time. Maybe it will have quit raining by then.

 

That place is called Big State Drug, I had breakfast there this morning!

Sweet - Looks like my dad will be in town at the end of the month so it will be really cool to take him to the show -

 

After the huge success we had last year we had to move the car show to a larger area. This year we will be on Main St. both north and south of Irving Blvd. Plus there is a couple large grass lots we will be using. And we will be using the DART/Trinity Express parking lot.

It sounds wrong but you could take the train to the car show!

Here are a couple photos of downtown Irving. If I were you I would plan on eating breakfast at Big State Drug. They have a great soda fountain restaurant in side.





Pre-registration has already surpassed last year.

We have increased the classes and added club picks.

Here are some of the clubs participating...so far. Contact me if your club would also like to build a trophy and pick the winner.

Chupacabras
Them
The Torques
Wilson Welding
Early V8 Club
Area 51
East Texas Inliners
Art by Hamilton

It's gonna be fun.

See everyone in a couple weeks.

Pre-registration closes on Friday the 18th.

Bart
