Classic Cars

of

Oregon

 

 

Can you remember back to a time when cars were real? I mean made of good heavy metal. A time when they all had character. They didn't all look the same.

A time when you could tell a mile away that a Chevy or a Ford was coming because of the identifying characteristics. The rumble or roar of the engine. Every car had its own spicific sound and we knew all of them.

That was a time when all cars had a class of their own. Back them we all had our own favorite car and we worked on it everyday to make it shine, run smooth and stand out in the crowd because it was ours and we were proud of it.

Those were the good old days, rock and roll, poodle skirts and white bucks. The rock and roll music blasting on the speakers or at a local sock hop. Cruising the gut till all hours of the night.

See it all here Cruiz The Coos

On the following Sunday all those cars are lined up at the beautiful Shore Acres State Park overlooking the Pacific Ocean for the show and shine event waiting for the judges to pick the best of the best in several categories.

 

You are sure to find  something to remind you of a time long forgotten. Here is a fine example, a 1964 Ford Falcon. This car spent a summer or two as a backyard restoration project. When first purchased it was in bad shape and in need of a complete engine rebuild plus many other parts and paint.

As you plan your vacation to the world of classic cars take in the Graffiti Weekend at Roseburg. Every year for the past 28 years Roseburg's Graffiti Weekend events have been showing the west coast some of the finest of the favorite old machines.

This event also includes a show and shine where the people can have a close up look at the past.
