Co-sponsored by Dort Financial Credit Union and General Motors with 50 others lending support, the 9th annual family-friendly event was themed “Shake, Rattle & Roll” a tribute to the 1950s. The three-day event showcased a collection of 122 classic and custom vehicles – sports cars, muscle cars, hot rods, trucks, and a handful of custom motorcycles filling the two arenas, hallways and mezzanine of the Dort Financial Center. In the lobby, a variety of vintage cars, gas pumps and neon were displayed, with a collection of GTOs taking center stage on the ice.
Attendees enjoyed a variety of concessions and demonstrations, with 70 vendors displaying automotive-related items for sale. Friday night’s sold-out VIP Experience featured gourmet hors d’oeuvre and desserts in the Blue Line Room, with live entertainment by local rock band Johnny and The Monsters.
Sunday’s schedule included an awards ceremony, as well as the Miss Chrome & Ice pageant sponsored by Vehicle City Motors. Taking home the crowns were Miss Chrome & Ice 2024 – Victory Starr; Miss Kustom Kitten – Greta Grenadine; Miss Crusin’ Cutie – Ms. Sweet Tea Pie and Miss Vivacious Vixen – Gigi Gallows.
Proceeds from Chrome & Ice™ and the VIP Experience will support the Back to the Bricks® Youth Scholarship Fund.
