This year’s event drew a large crowd, with beautiful weather attracting visitors from both the local community and surrounding areas. Earlier in the day, traffic backed up along Highway 2 as a line of vehicles waited to enter Wrightwood.

Live music was provided by the Modd Rodds, who performed in front of The Yodeler Bar and Grill. Spectators could be seen dancing in the street while enjoying the music and taking in the rows of classic cars.
