Event Description
Open to all 88-98 Chevy OBS (old body style) Pickup Trucks
Mark your calendars for a day of automotive exhilaration at the OBS Summit 2023 show! Set to take place on Saturday, September 2nd, 2023, this event promises to be a memorable gathering for all lovers of this classic Chevy truck and it's rich heritage.
This unique event is scheduled to take place a day before BloodDrag. The OBS Chevy trucks already enjoy a significant fan base, yet unlike the Chevy C-10, there are currently no shows dedicated exclusively to this generation. So, we thought, why not be the first?
We've partnered with the OBS Club of Florida and Georgia to organize this show, which will be entirely free for all attendees and registrants. The event will unfold at Auto Metal Direct's facility in Gainesville, Georgia. Following the show, attendees can join a cruise to the Miles Through Time Automotive Museum for an exclusive preview of their latest collection of classic cars and trucks.
The OBS Summit 2023 show is set to kick off bright and early at 9 am, offering attendees a full day of automotive excitement. Make sure to stick around for the massive raffle at 1 pm, where a plethora of fantastic prizes await. Following that, we'll be honoring the best of the best with the award ceremony at 2 pm. And as a grand finale, join us for a scenic cruise to the museum, starting promptly at 3 pm. It promises to be a day filled with enthusiasm, camaraderie, and the love of all things Chevy OBS Truck!
OBS Summit is completely FREE to both registered vehicles and spectators!
We will be accepting donations on site benefitting the Eddy Bear Foundation. An unwrapped, brand new with the tags still attached, stuffed animal or cash is accepted.
The list of award categories are as follows:
- Top 10

The 1958 Porsche 356 Speedster marks the swan song of one of Porsche’s most iconic and minimalist models. Originally introduced in 1954 at the urging of U.S. importer Max Hoffman, the Speedster was designed to be a low cost, lightweight, stripped-down entry sports car that could double as a weekend racer, especially for the California sports car scene. With its low windshield,…
