Individuals, car clubs and business owners interested in publicizing events should contact Miguel Caparros at 678-409-1668 or e mail here. If you are unable to celebrate on July 13th, we encourage events to be scheduled throughout the month of July.
As many of you are aware, the date marks the third commemoration in what has become an annual event to raise awareness of the vital role automotive restoration and collection plays in American society. Atlanta Car Shows and South East Wheels Events are again working to secure a U.S. Congressional resolution to recognize the day’s national significance.
In previous years, the U.S. Senate helped launch national Collector Car Appreciation Day. As a result, thousands of Americans have gathered at car cruises, parades and other events to celebrate our nation’s automotive heritage. By taking part in these events around the country, these automotive enthusiasts and related businesses ensured that their passion was honored and recognized.
