See You Down The Road

After many years serving the classic car community, Wisconsin Collector Car will be shutting down at the end of 2024. Thank you for all of the car show memories!

    We haven’t been back since new people took over a couple years ago.. I think we are going to give it another try this year, hopefully the kinks have been worked out by now.

    It’s been years since we’ve been to Edgerton, but I think we might give it another try. Sunday we’re talking about Juneau, hopefully the weather cooperates for us all!

    If you go to Edgerton, tell the drama queen and her new boyfriend hi for me :whistle:

    We did go.. it’ll be a long time before we go back. Nice location, but that’s about it.

    Let me ask around, would be great to see!

    We’ll continue to work on the food, it’s hit or miss with the amount we go through

    Thanks for the reviews guys, I appreciate it.

    You all know we work very hard to make this show a success and were thrilled to see so many cars today, especially the new ones,

    With that said, I know we can’t please everyone and every show has it’s faults – even after 6 years. We try to improve on our show each year… thanks to everyone that came out, see you next year

    No insurance? The guy has been involved with classic cars for years, can’t imagine that

    Thanks for all the pics Ryan. We talked to several people at Pardeeville yesterday that were at the Dells on Friday, some had done a couple legs of the tour – lots and lots of very unhappy people having to wait in line for 2-3 hours. Also heard some of the towns they went through were thrilled to see them (the Mayor of Dodgeville was shaking hands with those coming through) while others towns found it to be a huge inconvenience.

    I realize this isn’t for everyone, and it’s more of a driving tour than anything, hopefully the tour next year gets a few tweaks. It’s an honor to have something this big close to home

    Looks like a nice show with some… questionable vehicles entered, something for everyone! :)

    Maybe the magazines will be more than 75% ads now?

    Jon, while I wasn’t there – I did hear comments about it at work today and they were positive.

    I think we’ve all learned you cannot please everyone, no matter how hard you try. .

    Hold your head high, you pulled this together in a short amount of time and had your heart in the right place.

    Saturday was crazy! It took us 45 minutes to get back to the hotel, which is only a few blocks from Noah’s Ark… it didn’t help there was a tuner show at Marley’s at the same time… Got up Saturday morning to find frost on the cars, not my idea of fun, but it did warm up nicely.

    All in all, good times. Lots of great cars to look at, really something for everyone.

    As much as WI Dells must make on this weekend with everyone in town, it’s also got to be quite the mess cleaning everything up (the hotels around us were trashed), and just the general headache dealing with every teenage kid that thinks it’s a good idea to spend the weekend drunk…

    I’ll echo the food line… what on earth? Dickie’s BBQ was in charge this year, and while it was good – why didn’t they have more than two people serving? Take a lesson from other shows, hire Boy Scouts, or some non profit group that needs to make some extra money and put them in charge. More bathrooms and garbage cans would’ve been nice, you can never have too many of those at shows like this. My only other suggestion… we paid $15 to get in and they gave one award per class? I know the kids make the awards and I’m sure they are lots of work, but with 400 cars (and some very nice ones), spread things around a little, or narrow down your Import classes?

    All in all, great show – you couldn’t ask for better weather, and so many cars I’ve never seen before. The celebrities all seemed to be enjoying themselves, taking lots of pics and talking to everyone. Not sure how Madison Police lets them get away with the burnouts leaving the show, but I enjoyed it.
