“We’ve got everything from 1920s vehicles to 2019 muscle cars,” said organizer Randy Jethon. “There’s a lot of different variety — muscle cars, convertibles, trucks, antique vehicles — you name it, it’s here!”
The Mainstreet Cruisers are a group of local classic car owners who meet regularly to “cruise” and talk vehicles.
“For many of us, we grew up with these vehicles, we like to go out for a drive on a Saturday afternoon — people stop and smile when they see a classic car,” Jethon said. “For the average person that gets into a car hobby, it’s someone who likes to preserve something that reminds them of their youth.”
