ONE MONTH TO GO! West Seattle Car Show on August 27th

(WSB photo: Little car, big hit, at last year’s West Seattle Car Show)

This year’s West Seattle summer fun has a long way to go, so we’re reminding you here and there about what’s yet to come. We are exactly one month away now from the West Seattle Car Show, which is moving up this year into August, and happening on a Saturday instead of a Sunday. It’s on Saturday, August 27th, 10 am-4 pm, on the north end of the South Seattle College (WSB sponsor) campus for the second year, and signups are happening right now. Whatever kind of motorized vehicle you have, there’s probably a trophy for it:

Alt fuel/EV
Motorcycle
Ladies/Female owned
Junior (under 21)
Best “un-restored”/survivor (any class)
Judge’s choice – best stock
Judge’s choice – best modified
People’s choice / Michael Hoffman award
Sponsor’s choice
SSC choice – for best student car (judged by SCC staff)
1954 and under domestic
1955 – 1959 domestic
1960 – 1964 domestic
1965 – 1969 domestic
1970 – 1974 domestic
1975 – 1989 domestic
1990 – current domestic
Truck
European
Asian

Go here to sign up. There’s room for more vendors and sponsors, too. The show is presented again this year by West Seattle Autoworks and Swedish Automotive (both WSB sponsors) and they have a LOT planned, not just vehicle-viewing – see last week’s preview for details.

    A friend I had in HS in the mid 90s had one of those Isettas too. It wasn’t long before he didn’t have it, but survived to get a safer car.

    “Ladies/Female owned”? That seems…condescending.

    Aw.   I love those cars.  1  cylinder. I think they do about 35 with a good tail wind.  What a beauty!.

    In the 1960s, one of the teachers at my elementary school drove an Isetta.  On the last day of the school year a group of sixth grade boys picked it up and moved it over to the “no parking” side of the street in front of the school.

    Coolest car EVER, what a gem!  Will we see it at this year’s show?

Sorry, comment time is over.
