Eureka, Ca., (KIEM) Old town in Eureka roared to life Saturday as local car owner’s showed off their hot rods. Vintage antiques, Corvettes, and muscle cars all lined up on Second Street.

Cruz’n Eureka, over 20 years running, attracted neighbors but also those not so local. Phyllis Carpenter is new to town, she said her and her family came out to Old Town with no expectation but now, “I never been to a car show but this one here I’ll be going,” said Carpenter.

Eureka resident, Glen Finley, shared that he attends Cruz’n Eureka every year because for him it’s nostalgic, “It reminds me growing up with a lot of these cars especially the muscle cars.”

Cruz’n Eureka allows a good time for the county however its primary goal is to raise funds for the Boys and Girls Club of the Redwoods.

“It’s going to a good cause, the kids are our future,” said attendee Scott Hemphill.

This year’s car selection varied one by one but there were some favorites

“The green 69 Daytona,” expressed Finley.

Whether you like a car for speed, the color or both. One thing is for sure majority of those attended had a great time.

“It’s good. It’s awesome. I like to see people out and about,” ended Hemphill.
