Did you know Americans celebrate Collector Car Appreciation Day?
It is celebrated annually on July 9 to highlight the role automotive restoration and collection plays in American society. The day was first noted back in 2010 due, in part, to U.S. Senate resolution S. Res 513, sponsored by Senators Jon Tester (D-MT) and Richard Burr (R-NC).
Collector Car Appreciation Day is sponsored by the SEMA Action Network and thousands attended events ranging from car cruises and shows to small-business open houses and “drive your car to work” displays.
So keep an eye on your social media feeds coming from America this weekend as the country showcases the impact cars have had on American culture. And, since you are here, check out the amazing work we’ve done on this American icon: 1966 Chevrolet Corvette.
