Car shows are popular, but when you combine a free classic and antique car show with the opportunity to help area charities, people will flock to be a part of it.
It will all be happening from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the heart of historic downtown Wake Forest on Saturday, June 14, which also happens to be Flag Day. It seems appropriate.
Admission to the show on South White Street is free and open to everyone. Those wishing to enter a vehicle in the show can register on the day of the event between 8 and 11 a.m., and the cost is $20 per vehicle.
On display will be muscle cards, sports cars, pony cars, classic and antique autos, street rods and trucks. There will also be a “Take-Apart-T” Model T disassembly and reassembly demonstration, and the Leith Kia Monster Truck will be on display – Chris Leith Dodge/Kia is the sponsor.
There will be live music, food and retail vendors.
The charities that will receive the proceeds from the day include the Wounded Warriors of Wake County, Hospice of Wake County and the Miracle League of the Triangle.
The event is sponsored by Downtown Wake Forest, formerly called the DRC or Downtown Revitalization Corporation.
