Build your DREAM garage for charity!

Every car guy and car girls dream is to have the top of the line garage to store their gorgeous rides and the tools to build them. The IL Chapter of the Huntington’s Disease Society of America was donated a $4,495 Snap On Tool box from the Crystal Lake location to help their cause.

You too can have your chance to win! This Saturday, September 19th from 10am - 4pm The Hot Rods for Huntington’s Disease Car Show at Volo Auto Museum will be raffling off this top of the line royal blue Snap On Tool box. They had just announced they have opened the raffle early, for all those unable to attend the event! This is a once in a lifetime chance to start building your garage the way it should be. They have items for purse lovin’ women too! They will be raffling off an official Coach purse!

Here’s the back story of how the show began and why each and every year it grows with the help of local and non local businesses.

Every weekend morning over the past two years Willow (3 years old) has awakened and asked her parents if they could go to a car show. As he starts the engine, the roaring of her daddy’s 71’ Nova gets her smiling from ear to ear. Willow became a car girl from the first time she rode in the Nova. Since that first car ride, she has been in three parades with her parents car club, the Northern Illinois Streeters and has more than two dozen car shows under her belt. This is every dad’s dream and a dream we would love to keep alive. One thing that Willow has yet to understand is that her daddy has an incurable brain disease in which one day will take his life.

Huntington’s Disease is a genetic degenerative brain disorder for which there is no cure or treatment. Willow’s dad was diagnosed over six years ago and since that day her parents have worked very hard to help fight the disease. Because this disease is genetic, one day her parents will need to explain to her that she has a 50/50 chance of having HD.

Typical symptoms of HD arise at the young age of 35 and can even begin in a child’s early years. Huntington’s Disease is relatively rare and so is the awareness and support to the fight to find treatments and an eventual cure.

In 2013, Willow’s parents decided to combine their passions, the HD fight and cool cars, to not only spread awareness in support of HD sufferers, but to bring them and their families together with car lovers for a fun day filled with hot rods, music, food and games.

On Saturday, September 19th from 10:00am to 4:00pm, Hot Rods for Huntington’s will be hold their third annual car show at the world-famous Volo Auto Museum in Volo, Illinois. This year Hot Rods for HD has teamed up with the Volo Auto Museum to bring you a Beers, Ears and Gears event celebrating 35th anniversary of the ‘Blues Brothers’ and raise funds and awareness for HD.
