Heritage Days 2006
Highlights
from the 16th Annual Heritage Days Car Show in Clatskanie, Oregon on June 24, 2006.
This show is sponsored by the
Clatskanie
Cruisers. 266 cars were on display at this show, and I managed to
photograph many of them. The winning cars were listed, with photographs,
in the
Clatskanie Chief. This was a great help in putting together captions
for these pictures. Also, a number of the cars at this show belong to
members of
Lower Columbia Classics, and are featured on their website, which
was quite helpful as well.
