Vintage cars, hundreds of vendors showcasing parts and much more will pack the park.

Set up should begin at 8 a.m. Friday, July 28, and premises must be vacated by 3 p.m. Sunday, July 30.

Car enthusiasts can find just about anything at the swap meet — a “Car Corral” has vintage autos for sale in various states of restoration; there are flea market spaces; and a free trolley that makes the rounds on the massive event’s grounds.

Among the many items for sale are vehicles and parts, tools, auto accessories, hats, books, clothes and various souvenirs.

No food and beverage vendors will be present. Fredericksburg Vintage Car Club, which had built the event into the huge following for nearly four decades, turned over the keys in 2019 to Earhart Productions.
