Enderle Center Classic Car Show in Tustin, CA

The Sunday morning of the car show was threatening rain but that didn’t stop the hot rod, classic car and specialty car owners from their Enderle Center Classic Car Show in Tustin, CA.

The Enderle Center is always a comfortable place with new people arriving to join the regulars. This monthly event had a very nice turnout of about 160+ cars, notwithstanding the weather.

One of the special things about this show is the variety of cars. Everything from exquisite classic concourse cars to utilitarian military vehicles and traditional rods.

The center has five restaurants and a cute little coffee shop for you to enjoy while you check out the cars. They have opportunity drawings, and a 50/50 drawing. Under the clock tower, the winning cars are driven in front of the spectators one at a time to receive their awards. If you’re local to the area definitely stop by for a terrific time!
