You Can't Touch This

          For the sixth year the City of Blue Ash and the Untouchables Classic Car Club recently got together to host a Classic Car Show. Set in Oakwood Park at the Hazelwood Community Center, this show has become a favorite of car owners and those who just want to enjoy alike. There are a number of reasons for this.
          The setting, amid a large tree lined grassy field, is different than that of many shows. Where parking lots are generally the venue of choice for other shows, here, the grass and trees providing shade tends to provide for a cooler place to enjoy the cars. On this particular day, a very rare cool snap had hit the area and the rarest of sites, people putting on sweaters and jackets in August, could be seen in the morning.
          Another reason for this becoming such a popular event is the fact that the Untouchables Classic Car Club provides free food in the form of freshly grilled hamburgers, hot dogs and metts. Nothing beats a freshly grilled burger or dog while looking at a host of great cars. Added to the atmosphere, as always, was some great classic music, heavily tinged with R&B.
          All of this attracts a very diverse group of owners and their cars. Sure there are the usual suspects and a good helping of hot rods and street rods but looking around there is a large diversity of cars on display at this event each year. There is always a loyal group of owners who come back every year and new folks who will roll in to be part of this show.
