Georgia Classic Cruisers invites all car enthusiasts to check out a variety of hot rods, modern, classics, antiques and trucks on April 16 at the thirteenth annual Southland Jubilee.

The car show will be located on S. Main St. and will feature 150 top-notch specialty vehicles from Atlanta, Augusta and surrounding areas.

“This will be the thirteenth year for the Georgia Classic Cruisers (GCC) association to partner with Better Hometown in doing the car show as part of Southland Jubilee,” said Ron Hazzard, president of Georgia Classic Cruisers. “In doing the car show at Southland Jubilee, GCC is able to interact with other car enthusiasts that bring their cars to the show, as well as talk to spectators about their car interests.”

There will be an abundance of 60’s and 70’s “muscle cars” including GTOs, Corvettes, Chevelles, and Camaros. Ford Mustangs and Chrysler products including Barracudas, Belvederes and Road Runners can also be expected.  

The cars will not only be on display for the enjoyment of Southland Jubilee visitors, but will compete amongst each other.

Professional, independent judges will look at year, originality, best engine, best paint and top 50 cars in addition to many other categories in judging the vehicles. Winners will be announced and awarded in the afternoon.

As viewers move through each car they will enjoy upbeat music chosen by Tommy Landrum, the car show disc jockey.

“In coming to the Jubilee car show, participants and spectators alike are able to appreciate what the car owners have been able to accomplish in restoring older vehicles and possibly encourage them to get involved with a car project of their own,” Hazzard said.  “For others, it just brings back memories of when they were young and may have driven a car similar to those in the show.”

Georgia Classic Cruisers has a close relationship with Southland Jubilee, but also maintains an active philanthropic presence  within the Greene County community as the group donated a total of $1400 from Oct. 2010 though Jan. 2011to five charities including Greene County Food Pantry, Second Harvest, Greene County Stocking Fund, First Call Pregnancy Center and Project Linus.

Those interested in participating in the car show must pay a $20 entrance fee and can contact Ron Hazzard with Georgia Classic Cruisers at (706) 467-9306.
