GHRR
Gary’s Hot Rod Reunion is our way of reuniting everyone who has a passion for classic cars. It is a gathering place to reminisce, reconnect, and celebrate the hobby we love so much.
Vendors
This event is focused on automotive only so we will be holding our vendors to a very high standard when it comes to the items allowed for sale. If we find items that do not meet the requirements, you will be asked to put them away or leave the event.
An easy way to determine whether the items you intend on selling at GHRR meet our criteria ask yourself these simple questions. If you can’t easily answer yes to at least one of these questions, it is very likely the item you want to sell does not meet our criteria.
We will be wandering around during the show to make sure items for sale meet the spirit of the reunion so if in doubt, please give us a call ahead of the show to discuss the items you plan to bring.

Vendor set-up is on Friday beginning at 5:00 p.m.-7pm sharp.
