OT: Car shows in SE WI
Hey All,
Since I'm going to be around this summer I want to get the convertible out to some car shows. If you know of a smaller show. I.E. The recurring type in your town list it here. If it's close I may try to check it out.
I'll start things off
Gus's Drive-in. East Troy. Saturday nights. Every Saturday evening car dudes show up and park in the lot. It's usually 20-30 cars if the weather is nice. The food is good so it's easy to grab a malt and walk around. I think Memorial Day weekend is much larger. Usually cars are parked in the high school field across the street.

I know in the past both Delafield and Jefferson had monthly drive-ins/mini shows. If Jefferson does it again, I should have at least 1 of the bugs ready for it..

You could probably fit more pins in the back of one of those than your truck.Methos wrote:I am looking for a 73 Buick Centurion - let me know if anyone has any leads.

There's the "Cars on State" classic show in early June (4th this year)here in Madison. I've checked it out a few times and enjoy seeing all the old cars.

I'm not a big fan of orange but on this car it looks nice.

Isn't that a thing of beauty? We had a maroon color one when I was a kid. Time to fulfill that midlife crisis feeling and get me one. Can't go back home, but can take a piece of home with me.ChrisS wrote:I'm not a big fan of orange but on this car it looks nice.

I know it's a bit north but in Stevens Point every Saturday night 6:00 at Wendy's is a cruise in. Free first one is Memorial Day weekend and goes past Labor Day.
I make it there a bit with my Studebaker.

The gas station by our house (Janesville & Moreland) does a car night every Thursday all summer. How's that for small? they probably get 20 cars or so. Guy sets up a rig and plays music, everybody gets food from the dairy queen.
