2012 Show and Shine

Yesterday the 2012 Key West Ford Show and Shine brought thousands of people to closed off Columbia Street, to celebrate custom car culture.

The event featured cars from 1919 Ford Model T’s to brand new supercars. Some of the amazing cars were heavily modified; others were restored to their former glory.
With everything from live music to local vendors, there was something for all ages and all interests.

The fun wasn’t only had by the 4 wheeled crowd, but also the 2 wheeled variety was able to show off their masterpieces. A large motorcycle section with more chrome than you’ve ever seen, and custom paint that would make your hair stand on end.

This is one of the largest and most successful events that New Westminster hosts annually and it not only brings interest to the city, but supports local businesses as well. Even developers came to showcase their upcoming additions to the city.

Did you miss out? Check out the pictures below.
