426 HEMI B-Body Convertibles
Featured for the Red Carpet Invitational
Sponsored by the Brothers Collection
If you are a regular of the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals show, you know it is an event like no other. We strive to present a fresh show each and every year, with new Invitational and Special displays, often "in the works" several years in advance. We will always be devoted to hosting the finest examples of real American Muscle and the best Corvettes with an emphasis on the 60's and 70's. This year is no exception and we are primed up and ready...
It is hard to believe that it has been ten years since we played host to the incredible Mopar HEMI E-Body Invitational Red Carpet display. We had the honor of hosting a record setting 27 of the 42, with prime examples of '70 426 Hemi Challenger R/T and '70 and '71 Hemi 'cuda convertibles on the show floor. We tracked down all 40 that still exist, (two have been confirmed gone) and in doing what we do, were able to convince the owners of 27 of them to join us. What a sight to behold! I'll never forget standing on the steps around 2am before our Saturday opening with Ian and realizing just how cool this event is. Only at MCACN!
While some may say we will never be able to top that, I'd say that may be in the eye of the beholder. Remember when we played host to over 60 real Yenko Supercars? How about the lineup that had all but one color of Boss 429's side by side? Mopar fans will also remember the incredible Wing Car gatherings, one year with more than 50 on the floor, and there is never any shortage of prime original Drag cars! Cobra fans will always remember the Cars of Carrol Shelby Invitational, with Rex's GT40 in the middle. And the list goes on and on...
This year we swing back to Mother Mopar up front with a display that certainly rivals our Hemi E-Body convertible gathering. Once again, we spotlight the ultra rare 426 Hemi, but this time they will be B-Body convertibles. Still ultra rare and among the most sought after Muscle Cars ever built, and in several cases one-off, the year span covers 1966-1970 and of course, both Dodge and Plymouth. You will see Plymouth Satellites, Belvederes, GTX's and Roadrunners along with Dodge Coronet R/T's We have Drop-Top Hemi B-Bodies joining us from across the country and Canada!
Taking it to the next level, (as we always strive to do), you will see the above 1970 Hemi Roadrunner Unveiled Saturday morning after an extensive full restoration. You may remember this one when we had it in our B-Body convertible Invitational a few years ago, looking a bit forlorn. Well...the car is currently in restoration and on schedule for the Premier Unveiling, Saturday, November 22. You certainly don't want to miss that! So take a pause, sit back and imagine two rows of 100% real, fully documented 426 Hemi B-Body convertibles lined up for your viewing pleasure. That is just one of the many features we have locked in for you for 2025.

This is one example of what makes the MCACN show unlike any other. Another point I'd like to make is that we strongly encourage our car owner/participants to interact with our spectators and the other participants. While some shows want participants to be away from their cars, that is not how we do it. Sure...we don't want lawn chairs and coolers all over the place, but we do want you and your family to talk to anyone and everyone who may be interested in your car and more importantly, your stories. THAT is what we are all about. Yes....the cars get us all together under one roof but it is the memories shared and the new memories that we are making that make this show so awesome. Of course, we work throughout the year looking for the best of the best and the rarest of the rare, and through great networking and referrals, are able to host well over 550 great cars every year, many that are rarely (if ever!) shown. That is what makes the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals a show unlike any other.
Please plan on joining us Saturday, November 22, and Sunday, November 23 when we return to the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, (SUBURBAN Chicago area) Illinois, just minutes from the Chicago O'Hare Airport. We have SEVEN Official Host Hotels, which are all conveniently located within walking distance of the convention center, with five literally directly across the street. We have negotiated great rates, extra MCACN exclusive perks and reduced rate parking for not only our participants, but also for our spectators. You can read about them here and book your rooms now; www.mcacn.com/hotels
With sincere appreciation and true passion for what we do!
