We just attended one of the largest show and shines in BC.
Most of the streets in downtown Dawson Creek were blocked off for the day as hundreds of shiny vintage cars and trucks gathered for the grand finale of the annual Summer Cruise.
We met people from all over BC and Alberta. Some of the locals actually drove the vehicles here and many hauled them here in special trailers.
The streets were alive with proud owners, vintage car enthusiasts and eager spectators.
There were sandwich signs in front of each of the vehicles telling us about them.
Most of the hoods were up and the owners were happy to answer any questions and tell stories about them. While some were for sale as the owners were planning their next restoration project, it was obvious that many were considered family members and would never be for sale.
One man jokingly told me that he would sell his kids before he sold his car.
Later in the afternoon, awards were given in several categories.
