The annual show is organized by the Cruisin’ Classics Car Club of Prince George in cooperation with "Downtown Prince George."
Above left, a "Whizzer" a motor assisted balloon tired bike. You could pedal it, or, once you got it up to speed, the motor kicked in, consider it one of the original mo-peds. On the right, a custom 1928 Ford Sedan. Just two of the many different types of vehicles at the annual Father’s Day Show and Shine in Downtown Prince George.
Organizers say there were more vehicle registrations this year, about 50 more than last, pushing the number to 350. Certainly there was a great history of the motorcycle presented with the Harley 45, (at left) the workhorse of the Second World War ( notice the gear shift on the side of the tank) and at right, a more modern motorcycle with a fabulous flare of flames.
There some very different vehicles on display this year, including the 1965 "Moto Ski" snow machine shown below left, and a Ford Tractor, shown below right!
