Last year’s event brought together a varied selection of machines, from Mercurys, Chevrolets, Plymouths, Dodges, Edsels and Pontiacs, to slammed trucks, rat-look roadsters, stripped-down rods.

Even modified British classics such as a pro-street Humber Super Snipe and a 1934 Sunbeam Dawn hot rod. Also taking pride of place was an incredible hand-built 1931 Auburn special, a selection of high-powered bikes and trikes and a vibrant line-up of colourful customs.



This year promises to be equally impressive, with more than enough on display to fire up the imagination of any custom car fan. Prizes will be awarded for top machines, with trophies for Best Custom, Best American, Best Hot Rod, Best Bike and Best in Show.
