On a Monday in May, four vintage car owners gathered in the Terre Hill Park with Harold Kilhefner for a photograph. Martin Zimmerman brought his salmon-colored 1956 Buick. Ed Shirk brought his blue 1970 Charger. Tim Kilhefner, who is Harold's cousin, brought his black 1987 Buick Grand National, and Kurt Weaver brought his 1967 Oldsmobile 442 W30.

Harold had asked them to meet him with their cars for the purpose of promoting the 40th Terre Hill Antique and Classic Car Show, to be held in the park, 210 Lancaster Ave., Terre Hill, on Sunday, June 4. Car registration will begin at 8 a.m. Registration will end at 11:30 a.m., and voting will end at 2 p.m. Winners will be announced at 2:30 p.m.

Cars will be entered in one of 18 classes sponsored by local businesses. The first six classes are devoted to antique cars ranging from 1900 to 1998. Categories for street rods and street machines are included, along with a couple classes for Camaros, Firebirds, Barracudas, Javelins, and Mustangs. Corvettes, trucks, motorcycles, and farm tractors will each have a class, and an open class will be designated for vehicles built from 1985 to 2019. Class 17 is open to cars, trucks, and motorcycles that are not yet 25 years old. Class 18 is for AACA (Antique Automobile Club of America) judged cars that have scored a First Junior or Senior award.

First-, second-, and third-place awards will be given out in each class. Rather than bring in judges to examine the cars, the event will provide each registered car owner with a ballot to vote on his or her favorites. Entrants are also eligible for door prizes. In addition, representatives of the Weaverland Valley Fire Company will choose a single car to receive a Best of Show trophy. Winners will be announced at 2:30 p.m. Cars receiving first-, second-, and third-place recognition for each class will be paraded to the stage areas to receive cash prizes.

The show is all about cars, but the funds that will be raised by the event will help support the Weaverland Valley Fire Company, which serves the towns of Terre Hill and Goodville.

There is no charge for spectators to attend the show. Breakfast and lunch items will be available for purchase in the park pavilion. The show will be held rain or shine.
