NorCal Car Shows, Swap Meets & Races – January 9 – 15

 

 

Hi,

I can almost say the same thing as last week here in Northern California. I just keep hoping that we will get enough rain and that it stops before Car Show season starts but who knows? As soon as we get a clear Saturday morning, I plan to get out to some Cars and Coffees that I haven’t ever been to like Grass Valley, Central Valley Classics in Lodi, maybe even Ronnie’s in San Jose.

A lot of the events this week will probably be rained out again but here are some of the events that may take place?

This week’s Car Shows:

January 13-15 – Grass Valley: The Winter Fun Festival Four Wheel Drive Event is Friday to Sunday at the Nevada County Fairgrounds, 11228 McCourtney Road.

January 13 – Roseville: Hooch’s Cruise In and Pizza Night is every second Friday of the month from 4pm to 7:30pm at 5140 Foothills Boulevard.

January 13 – Santa Rosa: The Machado Burgers Car Show is every Friday from 4pm to 7pm at Machado Burgers, 406 Larkfield Center.

January 14 – Lockeford: The Blood Sweat and Gears Car Club Show and Shine is every 2nd Saturday from 9am to 12pm at George’s Bar & Grill, 18700 N. Highway 88.

January 15 – San Francisco: San Francisco Ocean Beach Hot Rods, Kustoms & Classics is Sunday from 7am to 11am at Ocean Beach, Great Highway and Lincoln Way.

We offer three membership levels and the chance to become a Lifetime member of the American Car Culture Association for those that would like to be even more generous. Each level will receive the following benefits with different Car Culture Gear depending on the tier they choose.

The first tier is $60 a year with the benefits listed below.

The second tier gets to choose between a Red Kap work shirt or a Hoodie for $120 per year.

The third tier gets an embroidered American Car Culture Association Jacket for $240 per year.

The Lifetime membership comes with Car Culture Gear from all three levels as well a yearly t-shirt and member benefits for life for a $500 contribution.

We are working with lots of businesses and vendors to offer discounts and coupons to everyone that joins the ACCA. We will be adding new vendor discounts and coupons each week. Hopefully the amount you save by taking advantage of these offers will more than cover the cost of membership.

Most of you know that Hagerty Insurance has been a long time sponsor of ours. Joe Giuntini, our first Hagerty Rep was reading our newsletters and just called and wanted to be a part of what we are doing. For that I’ll always be grateful. The last couple of years we have been working with our friend Dave Oyler, who is the largest Hagerty Insurance Broker in Northern California. My friend Seth Owen is our new Hagerty Rep. He is a great guy and is definitely a Car Guy! Here is a picture of Seth and I in front of our store in Citrus Heights.
