Father's Day car show, Akron Ohio

[m22mike]

This was the 50th anniversy Father's day car show held at the Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens in Akron Ohio.
Stan Hywet was built by Frank A Seiberling in about 1915. Frank founded the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co. in Akron in 1889. He named his company after Charles Goodyear the inventor of the vulcanization.
This is a great show with something for everyone. Hope your not bored with the classics,they were stunning.

Well, I missed another good show due to work. Only 15 years to retirement. Thanks for sharing the pix Mike. The black/red 65 Pontiac has an incredible paint job, the qtr panels are a mile long each and not one ripple in either one.

Very nice photos!! I also had to work. Hey Woj, I am half way to retirement another 12 1/2 years for me and I'm gone!! This show also always gathers a large display of very nice cars and stuff you just do not see all the time... I believe it is still by invitation only as well...
