Shiny chrome, glossy wheels and a rainbow of colours will fill the streets of downtown Courtenay, as the Comox Valley Classic Cruisers celebrate their annual Graffiti Bash.The club is celebrating both their 25th anniversary, and the 25th anniversary of the bash, said Fred Tutt, club president. "Saturday night will feature the cruise around the Valley, and will end at Simms Park with Chevy Ray and the Fins playing live '50s music," he noted.On Sunday, the club is organizing a pancake breakfast from 7 to 10 a.m., with registration for the show — which is spread throughout downtown streets — closing at 11 a.m."We are hoping for about 350 participants, with an average amount of 5,000 to 8,000 people coming downtown," Tutt added. Both participants and the public are eligible for prizes."There's a wide variety of people who come check out (the cars)," said Tutt, adding he enjoys seeing the reactions to the cars, particularly from kids."It's amazing — they just love them, and you can just see their eyes are just popping out of their head. It's a heck of a great opportunity to see some amazing cars, and to come visit downtown Courtenay."So far, Tutt said he has car owners registered as far away as Oregon, and expects others to come from across the Island and the lower mainland.For more information on the bash, visit www.cvclassiccruisers.com.photos@comoxvalleyrecord.com
