street machines, and much more. More than 50 commercial exhibitors, 60 car clubs and 250 specialty vehicles.

Sponsored by longtime supporter, Lucas Oil Products of Canada, this year’s event will be action-packed, with more features, more entertainment and more live motorsport demos than ever before! Showcasing more than 250 of the Pacific Northwest’s finest Hot Rods, Muscle Cars, Classics, Customs and Race Cars, the B.C. Classic & Custom Car Show will also feature numerous unveilings of custom car creations by some of Western Canada’s most talented car crafters. Also on hand will be representatives from 30-plus car clubs and more than 70 commercial displays from some of B.C.’s top automotive aftermarket companies.

Continuing with our theme ‘Cars, Stars & Guitars!’, we are very pleased to announce the encore appearances by both the ‘King of Kustomizers,’ Mr. George Barris, creator of the world famous Batmobile, courtesy of Killer Customs & Performance, AND Mr. Chip Foose, star of the hit TV series ‘Overhaulin’ and quite possibly the most well-known custom car creator on the planet. Chip will have a number of ‘Foose Design’ vehicles on display including the ‘Hemisfear,’ the incredible one-off custom street rod, which will be making its Canadian debut at the B.C. Classic & Custom Car Show (check it out online at www.foosedesign.com). Both George and Chip will be on hand the entire weekend signing autographs, posing for photos and selling their exclusive Barris Kustoms and Foose Design-brand merchandise.

First 1,000 fans through the doors each day will receive a complimentary pass to the drag races courtesy of Mission Raceway Park!

Collectors now have an additional online resource for die-cast model information with the launch of the all new Car Room Magazine website. The site’s initial set of features offer information by scale and brand, a photo gallery, die-cast oriented videos and the ability to subscribe to the print version of magazine.
The site has launched with content that can be found in previous issues of the print magazine. Moving forward, collectors can expect to see a great deal of new information that goes beyond the printed page. In addition, a good deal of exciting new functionality is already in the works, and will be rolled out during the first half of the year.
This new site along with some “yet to be announced” surprises are just a part of what is looking to be a banner year for The Car Room Magazine.
