THE ULTIMATE KANSAS CITY CAR SHOW INDEX

 
Round, round, get around, I get around.  I post up stories about a lot of different car things here, but one of the biggest commitments is the local car show scene.  I've compiled a list of links to stories from all kinds of car shows since I started this in June of 2009.  They all include a photo slideshow and information about what was going on there that day.

Whether you were at that show or wish that you could have been, this is a pretty nice archive of all the events I've covered.  Maybe your car is in the photos!  This also includes events that I wrote about on the Examiner, so if you click on those links, you'll be taken to that site.

I appreciate my family, especially my wife and son, for putting up with all these car show exploits, and even going with me to a majority of them. 

I'll continue to update this list with newer events at the bottom as I go along.  I hope you enjoy taking a look back at all the automotive fun that Kansas City has to offer!

  3. No, these are the shows I've already been to. Look for updated weekly calendars, which are published every Tuesday.

  4. It is my husband's 50th birthday this weekend and I wanted to take him to a car show. He is not always around (usually in Afghan) and I know he would enjoy this. Do you have anything going on this weekend Oct. 6/7th 2012? Thanks

  5. Sure! About 5:00 p.m. every Tuesday I post a weekly calendar of events throughout the summer. Just click on the picture of the car lot at the top of the page, and it'll take you to the homepage and all the latest stories. Maybe we'll see you somewhere this weekend!

  6. A friend shared your site w/me today & I was curious if you include swap-meets in your scheduled events? Considering, that might be an interesting feature to your readers...

  7. Sure, I include local swap meets in the calendars when I know about them, and I even try and get to them and write a follow-up story when I can. If it's car-related, I'll probably try and go to it. Thanks for checking the place out!
