16th Annual BC Classic & Custom Car Show
ABBOTSFORD BC, CANADASunday, April 22, 2012
After a long winter of great indoor car shows the 16th Annual B.C. Classic and Custom Car Show comes to Abbottsford, B.C. featuring some of the greatest show cars of the times. Not only great cars but great personalities of the hobby are making an appearance at this show. George Barris, Don Garlits, Chip Foose and Gene Winfield are adding their presence to the mix.
I noted the great influence of nostalgia in this year’s event. There were great displays of race machines, hot rods and customs from years gone by mixed in with some of the newest trends of the hobby, including winners of the major shows of the year past. There was something for every interest, whether interested in old or new, the show had it all. Vendors of every part of the hobby had their booths filled with great memorabilia, toys, products and services. I also noted that 50 years ago I photographed my first show and saw several individuals who were involved way back then! Great memories! Put this show on your list for next year and see for yourself the best of the Northwest in 2013.
