Excelsior Cruze In Tonka Cruzers Car Club August 17

Thank you all for coming to my Car Show the 17th in Excelsior and over the summer - love all your cars. It is always great to see "new" Cars and Faces and talk to you about your rides!
 
I was only supposed to have 1 more show but have been asked to do a Show on “Apple Days” in Excelsior Sept 7th [along with the Excelsior Flea MKT]. This is a good deal for the Car Show attendees because it gives you a place to park at the show and go to the Apple Day event at which regular parking is at a premium. 
 
The time at the Sept 7th show will be 10 to 2instead of 9 to 12 by request from the City. So come show off your rides and wander through Excelsior for the festivities!
 
Don't forget the Aug 31st Show at the regular time of 9 to 12.

Thom Lofquist, the 2013 10,000 Lakes Concours Artist, made an appearance at Tonka Cruzers

Tonka Cruzers Car Show enjoyed having Thom Lofquist, Excelsior's Fine Artist, and Official Artist of the June, 2013, 10,000 Lakes Concours d'Elegance, bring his car to the Excelsior Cruze in on August 3.
 
The beautiful 2013 Concours print is available to purchase on Thom's website. 
You may be interested in knowing that Thom is available to create a custom oil painting of your collector car!  See all the details at his website: ThomLofquistArt.com



Tonka Cruzers Car Show on Aug 3, 2013 in Excelsior MN

Interesting that the nicest Saturday so far had the lowest car count but I guess that maybe some folks went to Cars and Coffee at the Chan MotorPlex and other destinations.
Some interesting new comers though and I hope they return – see pics.
The 2012 Dodge Challenger had some interesting features that the owner incorporated but one would think the features came from the factory, Very well done and appropriate to make the car the owners one off car!
Another car was a late comer that had a ton of great stories by the owner who by the way has owned it for 49 years. A nice and rare 1962 Studebaker Lark convertible, don’t remember how many he said were made but it wasn’t a high production number. 
Jon came with his nice Camaro and Thom with his Museum quality '39 Ford Fordor. 
Nice mix of cars as usual with many of the faithful showing up – thanks to all of you! Our young man who has done our Door Prize drawings was on hand too – think he might turn into a a Car Guy in the future, that’s a good thing.
 Enough for now- 2 more shows left for the year August 17 and August 31st so put that on your calendar.
Thanks again to all who continue to support my show couldn’t do it without you.
