If you are a true car aficionado, you must surely appreciate cars built in days long gone. The classic cars that were built a few decades ago, have a certain style that modern day cars do not. Don’t get me wrong… I don’t mean that I don’t like modern day cars. I enjoy both new as well as old cars. In their own way, they both have beauty. I don’t have the financial means to support a large collector car collection of my own, which is too bad. Also, I would’t have storage space for them. But I can still look at other people’s automobiles at antique car shows.
If you have never visited a vintage car show yourself, you should give one a try sometime. Auto shows are being organized all the time in larger cities near you. Your local newspaper is a good source to check for any automobile exhibitions. Somebody even organized a car show on a school yard close to my home at one time. There was no other space to display the vehicles. A lack of display space isn’t going to stop the true car lovers amongst us. I’ll gladly travel a greater distance if no car shows are held in my my own area.
You can get lots of information about auto displays on the Internet. Upfront, you want to figure out when they are held and where, ofcourse. Ofcourse, you also want to know what kind of cars will be on display. You may decide to skip this particular display, if the cars shown are not to your liking. Not every car show will have an entrance fee, so figure out if yours does. In case you have to pay entrance, learn how high the price is and how long you get to visit. You’ll have the most value for money when you leave early so you can stay longer.
Check an automotive magazine to see if they are advertising any classic car displays near you. At least some of the advertisements in car magazines are bound to be about organized shows in the near future. But even the magazines don’t always show you everything there is to do in your near vicinity. Asking collector automobile owners for information on the next auto display, is also a good way of learning more. There’s nothing these auto lovers don’t know about classic car related stuff. The more collectibles he has, the better your chances are of him being able to tell you all about upcoming shows!
