Default Chicago Vette and Muscle car show...

Is it still alive?
If so, still in Rosemont? When?

Chevy Vette fest was killed by its owners. One of the employees knew the show needed to be a Muscle car show (not just Chevrolet) and got a group of owners together to make the show it is today. This is by far one of if not the best muscle car show around. If you want to see street rods and modified cars go to world of wheels. If you want to see some of the best original, restored and day two muscle cars this is a show not to be missed.

Or for $5 park just north of the show in the train station park and ride lot. No height restriction.

Went to this show again and as always it was fantastic (best in the Country when it comes to this HIGH Level of the World's most valuable Corvettes and Muscle Cars)!

Was also great seeing my good friends Tommy(vettes) and Joe Scafide (50th Anniversary Joe)!

I feel terrible that I missed Joe's 50th Anniversary! He looks pretty good for being 70+ though.

My brother had his 1967 and 1971 Chevelles at the show. I did most of the work on assembly and disassembly on his '71.
