North Jersey Auto Show
2021 Restored Rusty Relics Car Show Pics/Writeup

The 2021 show started out well, with a good number of pre-registrations. On the day of the show, the weather threatened us with rain, and a some of the wet stuff fell from the sky in the morning. For most of the time, though, the show was dry—but people didn’t want to risk it! We ended up with over 60 show cars (down from our usual “sunny day” 400) and over 30 vendors.

Despite the rain-out, we handed a $400 check (from our savings) to the Boys and Girls Club of Lower Bergen County! Helen was chosen to deliver it, given her past work running toy drives for the Boys and Girls Club.

We still had the trophy parade, a decent number of spectators, over 30 vendors, and hot food from breakfast to lunch; and we had no problem clearing the field on time.

Both DarkSky and the National Weather Service predicted “overcast but no rain until after 2 pm,” but the weather did not cooperate, and there was a light rain until around 9 am, then a mild shower at around 1 pm. We held the parade in the rain.

Thanks again to all those who braved the weather, and to our intrepid sponsors:

Trophy parade

In 2019 we brought back the “trophy parade,” where spectators watch people drive across the show field to pick up their trophies. (It was also the first time at BCC that we separated the show field into classes.) This year we gathered at the far end of section "C" since PSE&G was in our normal gathering place.

This event is not judged; awards are given based on factors such as unique features, condition, restoration or ownership stories, rarity, etc. Winners cannot be owned by Restored Rusty Relics members; and we try not to select winners from the past two North Jersey Auto Shows.

This is a classic car show, only open to vehicles from model-year 1996 and earlier. Motorcycles, trucks, imports, and emergency vehicles are welcome! There are trivia contests and music; and selected vehicles get class trophies.

Show chairs: Dave Ivaldi, Earl Evering, Peter Doll
