Default Muscle Car Show in Centralia at Classic Chevy Parts, Saturday, May 28th.. Need Info!

Anyone have any information on this show? I few of us are going down to it and we want to know if there is a age limit on which cars can enter, since most of us have 4th Gen Camaros. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

That was a good show. There were the best looking Nova's I had ever seen in one place. A six cyl, I believe took first in that class. Very very nice car...goes to show you big hp does not always win.

It was a blast judging. They choose volunteers in groups of 2 or 3 maybe 4 and they got to judge other cars not in your class. Our group judged the Chevelle's which is one of my favorite muscle cars.

The grass was a little bumpy. If you are lovered it could cause problems.


since most of us have 4th Gen Camaros. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Basically you were judged against all of the Camaros. Makes it tuff because most are old school folks judging. I would say if you have nothing going on to go. There were lots of 4th gen Firebirds there and it all made for good company.

Thanks for the help. I heard about that show and I heard that not to expect anything if you have a newer Camaro, but, oh well. There are about three us us coming down for it and it should be cool to see some classic muscle cars.

Went to the show yesterday and it was cool. Even though it was a free show though, you get the impression that the newer musclecars (1975 and newer) are really not wanted there. It was cool to see the rides and some differetn cars that you normally don't see at some of these show though and it was worth the trip down there.

Did you see that ridiculous Chevelle on 22 inch WIRE wheels. Man I'm all for having your own taste but keep the 22's on the Escalades. I didn't make the show but I was there at the Olympia club. We were all like damn there are alot of nice cars cruising for a small town then I remembered there is a show there

Mike Classic Chevy parts Inc sells parts mainly for anything older then 73 But he is a pretty kewl guy. Thats why we like dealing with him.

Shows like that that are put on by places or clubs that are CLASSIC normally thats where the trophies run to. I might even make the 4th of july Fort lewis show this year with my husbands car but I dont know yet.

I didn't see that car, but I have seen a few car up here in Tacoma, like the '70 Malibu with 20's and gold spokes, the '94 Mustang GT with the most horrible green heavy metallic flake paint job (makes Maaco look like Chip Foose) that I have ever seen, and so on. Why can't they just do that to the Imports and the late '70s Cutlasses??? Why do they have to ruin a perfectly good muscle car?
