The Downtown Throwdown

The town of Batavia will block off several blocks of its city center once a year for The Downtown Throwdown, an annual car show that generally draws about 100 vehicles. This year's event was held on a beautiful, warm autumn day with proceeds going to support the Southwest Ohio VFW Memorial Team, a group that helps to maintain the grave sites of veterans. Among the vehicles that showed up this year was a Pontiac Trans Am, a Dodge Challenger, a 1967 Chevy Camaro, a 1971 Plymouth Duster, a 1984 Chevette that has actually survived, a 1990 Fox body Ford Mustang, a F150 pick up, and a 1983 S-10 Blazer.
