While they were busy trying to setup the parking lot for the inaugural Southeast Idaho drift car event, during the evening of 04OCT2024, a handful of cars were sneaking into the Pine Ridge Mall (in Chubbuck, Idaho):

The event was organized by the Pocatello Car Club, with the help of a hell-of-a-lot of sponsors.

80%, maybe 90% of the car is meant to be original, it certainly looks the part of a Great Depression era car that was the toy of the lucky 1% of the times.

Here’s my video, revealing the secret:

Phil Meador’s inaugural Summer AutoFest, with dozens of show quality vehicles inside the Pine Ridge Mall in Chubbuck, Idaho, and more vehicles outside the mall, during the weekend of 24th through 25th August 2024.

The event was organized by the Pocatello Car Club, with assistance from the Idaho Classic and Modern Muscle car club.

Professional car painting was available:

A table with some tiny cars.

The show actually started Friday evening. It took at least two hours to stage the vehicles inside the mall, and more would show up on Saturday and Sunday.  Here’s a short example, part-1:

Part-2, things started getting nit-picky:

Outside there were plenty of food trucks.

And there were other vendors.

There were plenty of cars outside, but it felt like some vehicle owners would leave not long after arriving:

Summer AutoFest: Fine ’69

17 years of free cars & food?

17th Annual Gate City Real Estate’s Client Appreciation car show and food feed at O.K. Ward Park in Pocatello, Idaho.

I wasn’t expecting so many cars at a free event, but reportedly it is the biggest such event in Bannock County.  Gate City Real Estate also calls this event their ‘company picnic’, yet everybody is invited!

Here is a few of the many cars (pardon my Summer Time Allergies):

Some more cars:

Another sampling:

Free food line.

Even after two hours of checking out the cars, they still had plenty of BBQ:

The sky got smoky from all the wildfires, but it actually made for a cool sunset.
