50th annual Festival of Wheels June 16 in Bluffton

Posted by Fred Steiner on Monday, May 8, 2017

FROM BLUFFTON ICON - Once upon a time gasoline was leaded, 30 cents a gallon, or cheaper.

Really.

Those days are gone, but many of the vehicles hooked on that gas survived. Over 200 of them return to Bluffton on Friday, June 16, for the 50th Bluffton Festival of Wheels cruise-in, sponsored by the Bluffton Lions.

Several Ada vehicles are always registered for this show.

A registration form is attached at the bottom of this story.

If luck prevails, you might catch glimpses of some gone-but-not forgotten heavy metal cruisers that once roamed Main Street Bluffton.
