CCOC 8th Annual Custom & Classic Car Show

Central County Occupational Center will host its Eighth Annual Custom and Classic Car Show benefiting CCOC’s SkillsUSA Club on May 13 from 5-8:30 pm, at 760 Hillsdale Avenue, San Jose. 

A $15 tax deductible donation/fee is all it takes to exhibit a custom, classic or vintage car, truck, motorcycle or bicycle in the CCOC auto show.   Exhibitors will also receive one free meal. Pre-registration is not required.  Exhibitors pay at the gate on the night of the event.

In 2010, more than 1,000 spectators came to see 286 entries in the annual event.    Donations are also being accepted to help offset costs.  Visit www.MetroED.net and click on the “donate” button for more information.
