Two weekends ago was the 53rd Annual Das Awkscht Fescht. Held in Macungie, PA, this year’s show hosted around 1,000 vintage and antique cars representing many makes, models, and countries. The show was great as always.

Below are some highlights from the show. The rest of the photos can be found !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

Have never seen more than 2 Nash Metropolitan at once. That is an amazing show.

The Metropolitan Owners Club of North America (The Tri-State Chapter, I believe), always shows up. They used to have their own section, until a few years ago (they reorganized the groupings for the entire event). Ever see 20+ Metropolitans in one place?

The Crosley Owners Club also shows up every year.

There were a few more not with the group.

I believe there were 10 in total.

Lovely houndstooth interior.

Pretty interesting selection. A Hillman Imp, a Cordoba, a Dodge 600 K-Car. Classics and I mean that in all seriousness.

It’s definitely a unique show. Lots of interesting “hidden” gems mixed in with the typical Mustangs, Camaros, and assorted Mopar muscle cars.

This year’s featured car was Oakland, too. Not something you typically see at a show.

I feel like I’ve been seeing that more and more at shows. The definition of a show car is getting broader.
