Wheels of Whitley County Car Shows

Received word that one of the truly classic car brands will be represented tomorrow at the Wings, Etc., Car, Truck, and Motorcycle Show. Pontiac, "The Chief", had a reputation for building great cars, and the Pontiac LeMans (pictured) was one of those models. Check out the 1971 Pontiac LeMans Convertible, owned by Barb and Tony Bratt. It is scheduled to be at the Wings Etc., Car, Truck, and Motorcycle Show tomorrow.

Earlier this week, I invited Honor Flight of Northeast Indiana to partner with Wheels of Whitley County Car Shows for a third (3rd) consecutive year. To follow is the HFNEI email response:

"Good morning, Doug,

Thank you for your incredibly kind words about our group. By extension, please know that you are also part of the Honor Flight family as you are helping to link the Honor Flight mission to those that might not have heard about the experience. We are truly honored by the appreciation and gratitude shown by your team, and patrons of the show. I spoke with Olivia who mentioned how wonderfully well-run the entire event was. We want to extend our deepest thanks to you and your team for the immense hard work, dedication, and coordination required to pull off such a successful show.

It is with great joy and gratitude that we accept your generous offer to partner again for the Wheels of Whitley County Car Show, for Saturday, August 7, 2027.
