Maple Leaf Muscle Returns to MCACN Show

While on this side of the border we prepare to celebrate our Independence Day, July 4th, north of the border our Canadian friends are gearing up for Canada Day, July 1st. So what is Canada Day? Well, according to Wikipedia, Canada Day, formerly known as Dominion Day, is the national day of Canada, A federal national holiday that celebrates the anniversary of Canadian Confederation which occurred on July 1, 1867, with the passing of the British North America Act when the three separate colonies of the United Canada, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick and were united into a single dominion within the British Empire called Canada. Let freedom reign!

So, while we love our Canadian friends and love the passion and enthusiasm they have for American Muscle, we want to go the extra mile in welcoming them to the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals show. And let it be known, there is a LOT of Prime American Muscle north of the border!

Back in 2022 we played host to a stellar group we dubbed Maple Leaf Muscle. The invited cars have Canadian roots, with some being Canada only, like the Beaumonts and Acadians, while others were originally sold in Canada or have direct Canadian roots. We had so much fun doing this, and had so many truly unique cars that we decided to do it again with an entirely new group of cars. Presented by Muscle Cars Bone Stock and Modified Magazine and hosted by Cliff Guinand, you will see an incredibly diverse group of cars. Ford, Mopar and of course, several divisions of General Motors will be represented and of course, we couldn't do this without a few Beaumonts in the mix! This display will not only be diverse, but educational as there are several cars that you may have never even known existed. How about a Chevy powered Pontiac 2+2? Yep...they did that and you will see one of the best. And to make it even better, we have participants joining us from Calgary, Winnipeg, Ontario and Saskatcehwan already confirmed. Special Thanks go out to Cliff, Terry and the Bone Stock crew for making this very special display truly a must see part of the MCACN show.

JUDGING; As we announced several weeks ago, Mopar Concours judging and Camaro Legends judging is completely SOLD OUT for this year, and we are close for Pontiac. Demand for Concours judging this year is tracking way ahead for nearly every make, so if you are wanting to enter a Concours Judged car this year, please let us know ASAP as once we hit our Judging Team Leaders strict limits, the category is sold out. In order to maintain our integrity and to give our participants the full value of the judging experience, we must have strict limits. If your category is sold out, please sign up for Non Judged/Pick Eligible as we will upgrade you to Judging if you desire IF WE GET A Cancellation. Cars will be placed on the waiting list, but keep in mind that we get very few cancellations and the officially registered Non Judged cars get top priority.
________________________________
HOTELS: Yes; several have already sold out but keep in mind we have SEVEN Official Host Hotels, all offering great MCACN exclusive rates and extra perks along with reduced rate parking for not only our participants, but also our all important spectators. To check availability and rates and to book your rooms now, use this direct MCACN exclusive link: www.mcacn.com/hotels. Do it now, as we do not have any "hidden" extra rooms for you!

CAR ENTRY; While we are tracking ahead across the board with over 400 cars already registered, let us know what you would like to show by emailing pics and information to
bashton426@gmail.com. We are especially looking for some prime and unusual Vipers, some performance El Caminos and Rancheros, Beaumonts and Acadians, perhaps a few more Big Bodies including Pontiac 2 + 2's and as always, anything that is rarely (or never!) shown.
Priority is always given to cars that have not been shown with us previously as we are committed to producing a fresh show each and every year.

FUTURE GENERATION: I am thrilled to say we have received more Future Generation entries than ever! Yes....the future is bright for our hobby and we plan on supporting our younger participants in any way we can. If you are a younger enthusiast, say under 25 or so, and would like to share your car and most importantly, your passion for the hobby, please email me at bashton426@gmail.com. For this, your entry does not need to be shiny, or even pretty, just cool!
Gilmore Car Museum RPM Show: Thanks to all who joined us last Saturday at The Gilmore Car Museum. We had a blast and we certainly hope you did too!
Happy Canada Day! Get out there, fire up the Bar-B-Q (and your car!) and make the most of each and every day.
With sincere appreciation.
