classic car shows (Charlotte, Raleigh, Durham: travel, work, health)

[autumngal]

Does anyone know if any classic car shows are coming up in the Triangle area say in the next 2 months. Have some friends coming from England and they love that stuff.

Cheers! \_/...

There is a classic car show this weekend in Charlotte

[autumngal]

Thank you kindly for that info. I personally know nothing of this sort of stuff but decided to give it a go -again thank you.

I saw that you was interested in Car Shows you might want to drive down to Charlotte to this one it pretty large and entertaining.

The Food Lion Pavilion will be filled with "heavy metal," including a pair of awesome Audis, a trio of historic Jaguars, television host John Walsh's massive H2OEX amphibious vehicle and radical hot rods built by David Watkins of Watty's Fabrications. Three cars from Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s private collection, including a 2000 Intimidator Camaro prototype and the Chevrolet Corvette C5-R he co-drove with his father in the 2001 24 Hours of Daytona, will be on display and the Chevrolet Camaro and GMC Topkick from the hit movie "Transformers" will be featured. A special display celebrating the 50th birthday of one of America's favorite cars, the 1957 Chevrolet, is also plan

If you're just looking for a quick outing, Grill 57 in Garner often has large groups of antique cars gathered in the parking lot, little mini-shows where you can walk right up to them and talk to the people that own them and get a great lunch with milkshakes at the same time!

[autumngal]

I'll keep that in mind for when they come back, thanks, I saw a sign not too long ago in Creedmoor saying something about classic car nights also. So will put that down also for future reference.

Thank you everyone, appreciate the input as always,
