VW Car Show Diamond Center Post author:admin Post published:May 26, 2021 Post category:Events Don’t have all the particulars at this time will add as I know something. You Might Also Like Hot Summer Nights – 2021 August 14, 2021 Senior Center Car Show We had a car show Saturday July 15, 2023, with the Palmer Senior Center “Cars & Crafts” Event. It was a nice event, but the rain put a little damper on everything. The event was from 10 – 4 and the car show ran from 11 – 3. Since it rained all day and not just overcast but rained the Senior center moved all the vendors into the dinning room and we were lucky to be able to stay warm and dry in the bad weather. Since it was raining we only had 10 vehicles attend. I don’t know why but for some reason I never got a picture of the cars in a line out side. Never entered my mind until I got home and was unloading the car. The cars that showed up were a 1969 Corvette, 1974 VW, 1969 el Camino, 51 Chevy, 21 Nissan, 99 Mercedes 68 Ford Terino, 34 Dodge, a Ford truck and a Jeep. The Nissan won 3rd place, the el Camino won 2nd place and the Terino won 1st place for the People’s Choice. All in all another nice day sitting around visiting with each other. July 21, 2023 Well, folks as the weekend comes to a close so does the first car show of the season the “Valley Chrome & Wheel” show at the MTA Event Center and Ice Rink. It sure was a great show. If I do say so my self one of our best. We started out with 55 vehicles registered, 8 had to drop out and they were replaced with 7 more so we ended up with 54 final count. I can’t tell you the final count of those who came through our show yet but I had printed up 1,000 ballots for the weekend, printed 500 more on Saturday night and Sunday we ran out and started using post it notes and gave out a pad and a half of those. So, there were a lot of people. Our two Food Trucks scheduled showed up “Mamaw and Pops Hillbilly Cooking” and “Exquisite Urban Tastes” so we had plenty of good food for those who were hungry. The City of Palmer besides giving us a grant to use the building for our show put us on the shuttle line so people could stop by and check us out on their way to the Air Show and other activities going on in Downtown Palmer the weekend. I want to thank everyone who made this show possible from those who worked tirelessly at it and their poor spouses and partners who coped with us while we did down to the guys who swept the parking lot so gravel didn’t hit our beautiful rides driving in and out. We thank you, thank you, thank you. Here are some pictures of the winners. Antique Car 1930 Ford, Antique Truck 1919 Model T Truck, Classic Car 1963 Corvette Split Window, Classic Truck 1955 Chevy Pickup, Custom Car 1957 Ranchero, Custom Truck 1965 El Camino, Muscle 1973 Camaro, Import 2004 Ferreri Spider, Rods 1932 Chevy Custom, Work in Progress 2007 Charger, Motorcycle 2014 Can Am Spyder, Tractor 1947 Oliver, Mayor’s Choice 1929Model A Hot Rod, People’s Choice 1932 Chrysler Victoria.
