celebrate some of the greatest cars ever built. This event will delight old and
young automobile enthusiasts and complement our other auto shows. The festival
will be great fun for everyone as well as provide great promotional
opportunities."

American muscle cars, hot rods and custom cars. Entrants are challenged to bring
a variety of specific makes and models, returned to their factory delivered
state - down to the consistent manufacturing flaws.

Classics car show will be a very significant portion of the weekend events. The
history and style of classic American automobiles is something everyone can
appreciate. There has always been a great romance with American automobiles and
I am looking forward to the memories and good feelings these cars will bring to
the viewing public. We will have American automobile manufacturers represented
from the roaring 20`s up thorough the fabulous fifties, as well as show examples
of later model hot rods and muscle cars from the height of American auto
manufacturing. This event promises to be of special delight for the Southern
California community and attract a large crowd to relive a past when the
automobile was a cornerstone of the American lifestyle."
