Car Show & Swap Meets in the 'Midwest Region' Area - Please Share
If you know of an organized car show and/or swap meet coming up somewhere in/around the Midwest post about it here or better yet start a new thread about it. Please include the day(s) and time the event runs. A link to the event website would also be a good idea. Any other info such as past experience (hopefully positive), parking and entry fees, if your going to be showing a 3rd gen F-body, etc would be beneficial also.
