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!

    Out of all the shows that are on TV, I prefer to only watch a select few along with Football. Too much language, sex, etc. I prefer older television shows, so I watch RTV quite a bit.

    We are also headed to Pardeeville early Saturday… judging again! Have you seen the long range forecast? Temps in the lower 70’s, wow!

    Marshall ~ we attended that Labor Day show 3-4 years ago and it was really bad, sounds like they’ve made some positive changes.

    I went to it last year and I wasn’t impressed. Just my .02 :dry:

    Thinking about Jesus Built my Hotrod, what’s that show like?

    I went last year. It’s a very nice show. I’m going to this one also again this year, for personal reasons, I’m excited, anxious, and nervous :)

    And let’s face it – I could use more Jesus in my life :whistle:

    Susie the Duck Days is going on in Lodi this weekend and they have a car show too on Saturday. I found one website that mentioned it(but I lost the link). I attended this about 5 years ago (there were about 40 cars that are parked at the end of the parade route).

    Here is a list of the winners from last year:

    I guess I know where my buddy will be on Saturday… :whistle:

    I guess I wasn’t aware of the free bottle of wine, but as stated before it wouldn’t do me any good as I barely drink anymore. Everyone has made a valid point from how they select and who they let in for cars. I’m used to everything being welcomed into a show, no matter the style, condition, brand, etc.

    I rolled up in the Caddy and was met at the gate by someone that said they were not accepting anything other than pre-registrered vehicles this year. Considering they anticipated and had space for 150 vehicles with only about 40 arriving due to the rain, and there was plenty of space left on the grounds, I would have thought they would welcome a day-of show entrant. I live 4 miles away so I snuck over without getting the car too dirty but it was still pretty annoying to be turned away despite Bothams own website saying that day ofs would be allowed while time and space permitted (the person I talked to on the phone 10 minutes before arriving apparently assumed I was pre-registered when I asked if they were still letting cars in at 11:00; check in was extended for the rain) A few pre-registered vehicles did arrive after I did and were let in so its not like they couldn’t have taken my $20 and run with it…oh well I guess but it really would have been nice to park next to that red 59 caddy for a photo op.

    $15-20 entry fee? I know its for a good cause (Iowa County Humane Society) but lets be reasonable here. I guess I wasn’t aware of the Cars on State mentality for this show either… Does one suppose that the expensive entry fee is to keep out the Old Style “King Can” beer drinkers like myself and ddhemi? :laugh: Unless you are entering a concourse quality show or an event like World of Wheels, one shouldn’t have to be “accepted” to show there vehicle. If that person is willing to pay the entry fee, they should be accepted – especially if its for charity. I also don’t agree with charging spectators $7 per person to get in, instead they should have a donation fund should a spectator choose to help out the animals.

    Sounds like a bunch of high-fluting, wine drinking, euro-snobs IMO.
