Default Chicago Northwest Suburb Cruises/Car Shows

Anyone interested in getting a group together to head up to an existing car show location? Myself & a buddy of mine with another F-Body are trying to round up some other guys to cruise to a show or just meet up. Does anyone have some suggestions in mind for some spots to meet up at? I know I have a few but wanted to hear from you guys if you may have some ideas.

Any shows this weekend on Saturday that anyone knows of? I know a lot during the week days but not many on the weekends. I planned on heading up to RSD at GLD this Friday night but it has a 60% chance of rain.

Really? May be something I'd like to check out then. I also found this on the Chicago 5th Gen Forums.

Looks like an All-Camaro Car Show at Volo Auto Museum.

http://doublekproductions.com/pdf/072013Sunrise.pdf

Free car show at Sunrise Chevrolet in Glendale Heights this Saturday. Double K productions holds a car show every weekend all around the Chicagoland area. Show is mostly old muscle cars and hot rods. I am usually the only fbody...

Schedule: http://www.doublekproductions.com/schedule/


As soon as I receive/mount my GSD3's I would be down to meet up.

It's always a great turn out with some nasty rides. I would say the average show has 70-90 cars and the Holiday and Hooter's shows see up to 120. Having some more fbodies would be nice. There is a mustang club out of Plainfield (looks like hs/college kids) that always shows up.

Hm maybe I will come on up there. I'm deciding where I want to go either the Volo show or this Sunrise Chevrolet show. Any takers?

Sounds good, and the Volo turnout was HUGE this year!

There's a car show at Lake Zurich Culvers on Rand Rd. (Rt. 12) tonight, 4-9 live DJ too... Anyone going?

I've only had my car out 3 times so if you guys do get together near the northern suburbs, I'm in.It will be good excuse to get it out of the garage.
