There's no prettier place to showcase antique
cars than the Shaker Village
It's a social gathering
You can admire classic cars like the 1941 Hudson
Commodore
Take a peek inside at what cars used to look
like
1941 Plymouth
1946 Lincoln Continental
1947 Buick Roadmaster

original
The show also featured many interesting trucks.
Let's take a look
at some of them, in chronological order.
1930 Chevrolet
1940 Ford
My favorite — a 1941 Ford fire engine that's
seen better days
1962 Studebaker
Speaking of Studebaker, their cars were also well represented at the show
Studebaker Corporation of South
Bend, Indiana, was acquired by Packard Motor Car Company in 1954.
The marriage was not successful and the Packard brand was dropped after 1957. The
company continued
to build Studebakers in the United States until 1966, then moved to Canada where it
survived until 1996.
1926 Studebaker
Elaborate hood ornaments were a fixture of the
Roaring '20s
