Vernon Car Show History

"1989. In an attempt to join a car club comprised of drag racer only, two enthusiasts were told that street cars were not allowed in that club nor would they be in the future. This fired up a conversation at a local auto parts store by not only these two but by many others who preferred to cruise the streets rather than to drag race at a track. Soon, talk of a few turned into the action of many and the beginnings of a new club were in motion. During the meeting of which the name and bylaws of the new club was to be voted, a small group from the drag racing club attended in an attempt stop the formation of another car club in Vernon stating “ this town is not big enough for both”. They were right and the rest is history. The Vernon Street Machines and Classics Association (VSMCA) was formed in September of 1989 dedicated to help promote the preservation and restoration of classic and antique automobiles, a valuable part of the American Heritage." -SLB
