The first ever DuPont Great American Nationals cruised into the Giant Center in Hershey the weekend of May 20th through 22nd. Put on by Goodguys Rod & Custom Association, hosted by Country Cruisers of Lebanon County, and presented by Grundy Worldwide Collector Car Insurance, this event drew in hundreds of classics that filled the parking lots with reminders of days that have passed by.

With a kick off party on Thursday evening and a TGIF party on Friday evening, this show’s attendees showed that they knew how they wanted their weekend to go! On Saturday morning, they got serious though. It was time to show and to compete for some of the 80+ trophies that were awarded at the end of the weekend, including the Best Bitchin’, Dare to be Different, Fabulous Flames, Ford in a Ford, Memory Lane, Preacher’s Pick, Righteous Roadster, Sexy Sedan, and the Wild Card Just ‘Cause It’s Neat awards, just to name a few of the unique ones.

While walking around the show field, attendees could see numerous makes and models from Lil' deuce coupes and hiboy roadsters, to fat fendered Fords & Chevy's, lead sled Mercury customs, and the classics, such as vintage Packard's, '57 Chevy's and Corvettes. And it isn’t just the models of cars that catch your attention; the solid color combos that have been meticulously restored and shined into beauties that couldn’t be had even when they came right off of the assembly line.

They weekend was a complete blast, not only for attendees, but also for the town of Hershey and surrounding areas as they were bombarded a blast from the past! Check out where the next blasts will be hitting by visiting www.good-guys.com.
