Hershey-Sweetest Place on Earth-for Antique Car Buffs
Peggy and I recently spent a week at Hershey-probably the world's largest gathering of Antique Car Buffs! There are over 8000 vendor spaces, plus a car coral, and a gigantic chow. It is the Greatest!
You'll see everything there-goofy golf carts, small WWII plane, an old Ford race Car with a wooden body, plus thousands of other interesting items.

Hershey-Swap to Show
The Hagerty Insurance Company had a unique idea and display. They were putting together a car from parts they purchased at the show. Their goal was to have the car running before the show ended. I left Friday afternoon so I did't actually see it run-but I did watch it's progress for four days.
The workers were actually employed by Hagerty and they had signs listing their jobs and what vehicles they owned. The entire process was filmed by a TV Crew and streamed on their website. They drew quite a crowd-which actually helped them as some of the spectators were vendors and they could monitor a large board listing the parts needed. I watched a guy bring in a set of seats. The car was a Ford so a lot of parts were available!
