Considered to be the final outdoor event of the season here and a really good gathering of people with over 600+ cars in the show field alone,(The majority being 1955-75 GM),on a Midwest indian summer weekend.
All makes,models and restorations finished or 1/2 way done also.
Almost anything with 2 or 4 wheels will be there,and nearly as many spectators as Jefferson.
It's swapmeet is well attended by sellers as well as buyers,making it very competitive for both,with parts that would make eBay cry.
The car corral has some great scores too,as most are looking to sell before the snow flys,which in some past years was only hours away.
They always raffle off one of the show cars too.
A must attend if you have any lead in your veins!
