The VVA Chapter 165 held its annual car show on 23 July, 2017 at the Barkley Center north parking lot. The weather in the morning was marine cloudiness overcast, which is great for the cars. Gradually it burned off to a sparkling day. There were well over 250 cars exhibited (the actual count was 275) and so many members of the public that no one could get an accurate count. No matter what your preference for movable iron, there were several on exhibit.

First, second and third place awards were given for vehicles prior to 1930, the decades of the ‘30s, ‘40s, ‘50s, ‘60s, ‘70s and 1980 to present.

The winner of the People’s Choice Award was … (drum roll please)…the ’67 Chevelle owned by Ron Berg. This great car also took home the first place awards for the ‘60’s decade as well as the Vietnam Era.

This was a great show and you all should have been there.
