Like to wake up early and walk the beach at sunrise? How about
cruising through neon lit 50's style motels? Maybe a short cruise to get some crab
or lobster in Cape May among the many Victorian houses, the light house, or the beaches?
Please look into attending this event.
There were classic cars everywhere in Wildwood all weekend. We saw them parked at
Hotels, Motels, Restaurants, Beaches, on trailers, and even cruising. The only time
to see most of them at one place was at the Convention Center on Saturday Afternoon.
This year they were not on the boardwalk, but the quality of workmanship on any of
these restorations, originals, or customs was still worth stopping in to see them.
They even had a news team interviewing owners for the local news... If you are into
50s music, nostalgia, or even just cool cars, this weekend long event is not to be
missed.
Welcome to the Keystone Garage Club Website. Below are details about the weekend I attended in Wildwood, New Jersey.
It is a very cool weekend getaway and I would recommend it to anyone. Event information
(and the logo above) have been quoted from the official 50s Weekend Web Site for
a description of THIS year's event and will be displayed in quotes below. The pictures
following the quoted event information have been taken by myself.
