Evergreen Park Classic Cars & Rods Gather Friday At Yukich Field

EVERGREEN PARK, IL -- Bring your hot rod and fuzzy dice to the Village of Evergreen Park's Hot Rod and Classic Car Show, this Friday, Sept. 28. Dozens of car enthusiasts are expected to show off their classic and antique vehicles from 3 to 10 p.m. at Yukich Field. Admission is free, but food, soft drinks and alcohol will be available for purchase.

The registration fee for car owners is $25. No pre-registration is needed this year, however, to make the on-site registration process easier, car owners are asked to complete the registration form on the village's website and bring it with them to the car show. Registration begins at 3 p.m. Friday. The evening's musical act is Rolling Stones tribute band Rocks Off.

The 2018 edition will honor the late Vince DeCaro, long-time car show chairman and owner of Vince’s Towing. As proceeds from this year's event will go to the MSA Coalition, which has been formed to fight Multiple System Atrophy, the disease that claimed DeCaro's life.

Visitors to this year's hot rod and classic car show in Evergreen Park can party and purchase food from local restaurants in the Beer Garden. Yukich Field is located at 89th Street and Kedzie Avenue in Evergreen Park.
