2nd Annual Show
The PATINA Classic Car Show is a celebration of all our beloved unrestored classic and vintage cars. It is a festival for the unpresentable cars we love and drive regularly. This show is for the beautifully preserved cars that have never been restored and also the regularly used classics that ooze with patina and character. Even those cars that are limping along and held together by hope and love are welcome.
Warning: This is NOT a concourse event. There will be greasy engine bays. It is recommended you not wear white linen. Instead, grab a pair of overalls and join the party in the beautiful setting of the country house.
Show visitors will be encouraged to bring a blanket and hamper and have a relaxing picnic.
Awards will be given for Best Preserved, Most Original, Least Likely to Get Home, Most Elaborate Picnic, and more.
Restored cars are also welcome. There will be a big display area in front of the entrance of the castle for these.
Date and location:
