I just love that nostalgic feeling you get when you see a great classic car. When weekends were spent hanging out at the ice cream parlor and the drive-in was the only place to be on a Saturday night…oh, to dream! Well, the Arroyo Grande Valley Car Sho (yep, that’s how they spell it) is coming up this weekend and you can get your fill of nostalgia while checking out the custom and classic cars and trailers. The show starts out with a cruise through the village Friday night.

Now, speaking of drive-ins, there aren’t many left these days, but we’re lucky enough to have Sunset Drive-In right here on the Central Coast. How cool is that? So, why not a movie after the car show? Put your on your comfy clothes, grab a blanket, lawn chairs and snacks and take a cruise to Sunset.

Arroyo Grande Valley Car Sho – July 30-31

Last Saturday in July — One of the largest car shows on the Central Coast draws enthusiasts from around the state!

Hundreds of cars, including everything from hot rods, muscle cars and trucks to motorcycles and vintage trailers fill the Village for the Annual Arroyo Grande Car Sho (yes, it’s spelled ‘Sho’).

Cars are on display throughout the Village. Activities take place around the gazebo. A Best in Show, Major’s and President’s trophy are awarded along with dozens of others for various categories.

The show is a fund-raiser presented by the Arroyo Valley Car Club, although no admission is charged for the public. Proceeds from entry fees, a raffle and other activities are donated by the club to help charitable organizations in the South County.
