PA: Classic cars coming to Lebanon

From LD News:  Classic cars coming to Lebanon 

Car buffs will want to make a trip to downtown Lebanon on Sunday to see a display of classic and antique autos at the 15th Annual Historic Lebanon Classic Car Show.


The event is again being organized by the Community of Lebanon Association in partnership with a handful of sponsors. It will take place on Cumberland Street between Fourth and Ninth streets from noon to 5 p.m.
Car owners can pre-register for a cost of $12 through Friday by calling 273-7215. Cars can also register the day of the show beginning at 9 a.m. for a fee of $15.

Cash prizes will be given to the owners of the top cars during a presentation in front of HACC's Lebanon Campus at the end of the event, said CLA President Diana Hartman.

"So far we have 180 cars registered for the show, and we will be giving away about $600 of prize money to winning cars," she said. "Each of our sponsors selects a winning car, as does the mayor."

The show has become increasingly popular among classic-car owners through the years, with some coming from as far away as Philadelphia and Carlisle, Hartman said.

"We used to park the cars down to Sixth Street, but now they reach Fourth," she said. "It is a pretty well-known show among the cruisers."

In honor of their golden 50th anniversary, cars of 1962 will get a spot of honor in the parking lot of the Wells Fargo Bank at Eighth and Cumberland streets, Hartman said.

There will also be plenty of food vendors on hand and musical entertainment provided by DJ Rich.
Helping the CLA run the event once again will be members of the Country Cruisers of Lebanon County, Hartman said. Any proceeds will be used to offset costs for the following year's show.

Other sponsors include Sonrise Tags and Tax, TJ's Body Shop, and Scott's Transmission Center. The rain date is Aug. 26.
