A Wet Disappointment

The Annual City of Blue Ash and The Untouchables Classic Car Club Classic Car Show is usually one of the best shows in the region. There are many reasons for this, not the least of which is the sponsoring club. All car clubs are inviting and helpful but the Untouchables always seem to take it to another level. They offer free food (this year there were hot dogs, hamburgers and chicken sandwiches) and only ask for a donation. They bring in an amazing DJ who plays great R&B and soul music from the 60s and 70s. They have judges who are all part of the city's concours d'elegance. And their location, Oakwood Park and the Hazelwood Community Center is grassy and surrounded by trees. For the 16th edition, though, there was one thing the Untouchables couldn't control and that was the weather. Rain limited the number of cars to just a little more than 40 but there were some beauties. Among them was a Shelby Cobra GT 350, a 1970 Buick Electra 225, a 1979 Lincoln Continental, a Chevy Corvette, an award winning Impala show car, and a Jaguar XK.
