MotorCars on MainStreet – Sunday April 17, 2011 (10am-3pm)
It’s the 21st year classic cars storm the isle of Coronado, CA for MotorCars on MainStreet, an ongoing tradition that takes place alongside the city’s coveted Flower Show Weekend.
Convertibles, roadsters, trucks, street rods and other custom rides – all of which rolled out of the factory before 1973 – gather at Isabella and Orange Avenues, one block from the beach, to flaunt their fancy paint jobs and meaty engines.
More than 400 entrants will compete for the title of Best in Show. Rock to live entertainment by Tommy Price & The Stillettos and Scooby will spin Solid Gold Rock in the Park. Thousands of spectators can vote for their favorite entry in a People’s Choice award and viewing is free.
Get a sneak peek at Chevrolet’s Camaro Convertible and Motor Trend’s & Automobile’s Car of the Year, the Chevy Volt, courtesy of so-sponsor Ron Baker Chevrolet.
The cars rally rain or shine, but any Southern Californian – grease monkey or not – knows to expect the latter. Car registrations are $30 before April 10 and $35 after, space permitting. Register at http://www.CoronadoMainStreet.com or call (619) 437-0254 for more information.
