2009 Good Guys Car Show Schedule

Every year the Good Guys Rod and Custom Association puts on an annual car show across the United States. It is probably the largest hot rod, classic car, and muscle car show in the world.  If you havent already checked out one of these shows for yourself, you really should consider going to one of the events.  HotRodMucle.com had the honor to attend the 12th Goodguys PPG Nationals in Columbus, Ohio.  It was definitely one of the best car shows we have ever witnessed.

The event was a huge success, so we decided everyone who participated would love to have their rides featured on 1 of our videos. Go check out the new video here.. 2009 Helen Keller Car Show Video

2009 Helen Keller Festival Car Show

On Saturday June 27, 2009, Tuscumbia Alabama was home to the annual Helen Keller Festival.  The festival is a week long activity ending with a large Car Show lasting all day.  Winners are awarded trophies and small prizes.  This years car show was no exception to the previous shows.  Despite a troubling economy, hundreds of people filled the streets to check out all of the hot rods and muscle cars that were on display.  Local Automotive Dealers also provided the show with the latest in 2010 muscle car vehicles.  Included were the 2010 Chevy Camaro, 2010 Dodge Challenger, and the New 2010 Ford Mustang.  The 2010 Chevy Camaro was definitely an eye catcher.  I had the chance to view the car for my 1st time and I have to say, I am VERY impressed.  The car took my breath away.  It was definitely my most favorite car in the entire show.
