Title: Stan Hywet Father's Day Car Show
Post by: MikeSimon on June 02, 2022, 20:10:21

Not a particular Pagoda event, but a nice event for us enthusiasts in North East Ohio. The Father's Day Car Show is coming again to Stan Hywet on Sunday June 19.
Last Year, I met Ted Gottfried showing his red 190SL
I am in talks with a few Porsche friends and I may show my 914-6GT

Mike,

Is this Stan Hywet a big estate in Akron?   I judge dog shows and I’m pretty sure I was there for the Rubber City Kennel Club show many years ago.  If it’s the same spot, it’s really quite beautiful.

Hers is a picture of my Alfa I’m front of Stan Hywet. Perhaps you recognize the building.

The estate was built between 2012 and 2015 for F.A. Seiberling, the founder of Goodyear Rubber Co. It is quite impressive

I think Mike means between 1912 and 1915

That's exactly what I meant! Time sure flies and you lose track of it... :o 8)

Yes, that’s definitely the place where I judged.  The grounds there are very lovely and I would think it would be an amazing venue for a car show.  I distinctly remember how nicely clipped the lawns were.

This year's event was a little disappointing for me. Very personal, I am sure most visitors liked it, there was a huge crowd. I do not have a passion for anything produced before I was born, I do not care much for American Muscle from the 60s. What was left for me to get excited to see were some Porsches - a real nice yellow Ruf, a converted-to-GT looks '74 914-4, quite a few Alfa Romeos.
On the Benz front. the same participants as last year, Ted Gottfried with his 190SL and the 230SL from Kent - see pictures above. One other car, a 1971 280SE 3.5.
