Over 5,000 register cars & trucks and a few thousand more unregistered classic cars descend on the Mississippi coast for a week of car shows, cruises, swap meet, auction and more. Each event hot spot has a live band to watch and listen to while viewing the vehicles.

Thats looks really cool and it lasts a whole week, but a little too far for me. It would be hard not to miss at least one day if you lived in the area.

 
I usually try to be there wednesday through Saturday. The cool thing about this, is for every car registered, there are prolly ten others who just show up to be part of the scene.
