The 29th Annual Oracle Spring Run Car Show, which took place during the Oracle Oaks Festival, followed the ever-popular time-honored formula of a car show, parade, swap meet, craft fair and book sale.
Throughout the event, a food booth served up tasty burros, BBQ sandwiches and cool, refreshing drinks. The car parade ran through Oracle, starting at 9:30 a.m., ending at the Pinal County Courthouse Park where owners set up their cars, popped their hoods and waited for the accolades to pour in. The vehicles sparkled in the glorious April Oracle sunshine, ready to be judged and trophies to be awarded. With more than 160 beauties to choose from, judges must have found these decisions difficult.
And this year’s winners are:
• Best Truck in Show, Joe Gamez (Tucson) 1937 Ford Pickup
• Best Car in Show, Patricia Abbuhl (Tucson) 1936 Buick Coupe
• Best Interior, Dee Moore (Oracle)
• Best Paint, Max Kempton (Tucson)
• Best Engine, Ken Kempton (Tucson)
All proceeds from the Spring Run Car show, including the food booth benefit the Oracle Historical Society.
