Vehicles of all makes and models – including muscle cars, sports cars, pony cars, classic and antique autos, street rods and trucks – will be on display in downtown Wake Forest from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, June 16, for the 2018 Wake Forest Charity Car Show sponsored by Wake Forest Downtown Inc. with the grand sponsor Auction Direct USA.
There will be a Take-Apart-T demonstration in which a Model T will be disassembled and reassembled at 12:30 p.m., the Drunk Driving Simulator and the Wake Forest Fire Department’s fire truck and drone demonstration.
Admission to the car show is free but people can purchase raffle tickets to win a gift certificate for a new set of tires valued up to $800 courtesy of Ronnie White’s Towing and Tire (includes mounting, balance and disposal fees). Tickets are $5 each or five for $20 and will be available at the Wake Forest Downtown tent throughout the day. You need not be present to win.
Anyone wishing to enter a vehicle in the car show may register on the day of the event any time from 8 to 11 a.m. The intersection of South White Street and Elm Avenue will serve as the vehicle entry area. The registration cost is $20 per vehicle, judged or displayed.
Proceeds from the show will benefit several area charities.
