Each year the Dallas Area Classic Chevys hosts two exclusive Tri Five Chevy Shows at Reliable Chevrolet in the North Texas town of Richardson, one in the Fall and one in the Spring. This show is a non-judged show, and there are no entry fees. It is just a get together to admire cars and bring a lot of traffic to the club sponsor Reliable Chevrolet. Last Fall, Hurricane Ike’s wind and rain saw that the show was cancelled. This last Spring wet conditions leading right up to the hour of the show kept attendance down and now this Fall we get rained out on the original show date!
BUT that wasn’t enough as the show was rescheduled for the following weekend and after a week of rain, Saturday dawned warm and sunny and the Tri Fives came out in force. 50 Tri Five Chevys came out for the Fall Classic Chevy Show with many new faces and cars in attendance. The Dallas Area Classic Chevy club sponsors ALL were on hand and made selections for their ‘favorites’ of the show. Club member Dan Bunch was spinning the oldies and got everyone in the right frame of mind to be enjoying all the beautiful ’55-’57 Chevys. Congrats to the following ‘Favorite Picks’ that were passed out, that included

Mark your calendar for next SPRING when we will host the Spring Classic Chevy Show on March 13th which we will be pushing to get 100 Tri Fives crammed into Reliable Chevrolet for the largest Spring show yet! Already the Ghost Surfers are booked in to provide live music, dash plaques will be given out, goodie bags and best of all there will be a Tri Five ‘Cacklefest’ for open headered cars and trucks. Plan to be there!
