Officials say that this year’s show will mix things up a bit. “The show will feature many of the events that vintage car lovers expect such as great door prizes and a 50/50 drawing, but this show promises much more.”

In addition to vintage and modern cars and trucks, organizers say this is the first year that the show is open to motorcycles.

“I am so excited about the big changes coming to this great old show,” said Co-chair of the 14th Annual Shirley Looney Memorial Car Show, Deana Landry.

According to the release, the show also features a chance for car lovers to win some awards. Officials say the Best of Show winner will receive a 6-foot-tall trophy and a cash prize of $250.

In addition to the competition, attendees to the show can browse a silent auction featuring vintage items and items donated by Mobile businesses. Mike’s American Muscle Cars will provide entertainment at the show. Guests can also enjoy barbecue, hamburgers, hotdogs, and homemade ice cream while at the show.
