Entrants from at least seven states are expected by organizer Mark Middleton. The show is open to any wheeled customized vehicle. “We’ll have the traditional looking customized cars as well as maybe a few of the ‘new concept’ ones,” said Middleton. “We’ve been at it working hard for years now and by the looks of this year’s show, it’s finally paying off,” he added.
The eye-popping cars begin arriving as early as 7 am and the DJ starts spinning tunes at 9 am on the 16th.
