“After two years of exceeding our entry limit of 100 cars, we’re excited to see the growth and excitement that this year’s Cruise-In will bring,” said Steve Davis, president of Barrett-Jackson. “Of course, our success each year hasn’t come without the generous support from the community, which includes the local car clubs and enthusiasts as well as partners like Gaudin Ford and Keep Memory Alive.

Each year it becomes more difficult to choose only three of our favorite rides for the Barrett-Jackson Choice Awards.”
