On Sunday, July 24th, 2011 the illmotion crew headed out to the Rides ‘N Rods show here in Calgary. The show carried everything from classics, customs, newer domestics and also a few imports. The outdoor show took place at the Highland Industrial Park area of Calgary, where quite a few automotive shops are owned and operated.

The main idea of the Rides ‘N Rods Car Show was to ‘support the local community and strengthen that community’, since these businesses are all locally owned and operated. After checking out the show first hand, the strength and support of this community was certainly there.

It was definitely a refreshing sight to see how the classic car community of Calgary get together for a non-profit show, with all proceeds/donations going towards the Calgary Handibus Association.

The crew here at illmotion definitely has to give it up to all the shops that got together to organize this event and congratulate them on their 6th year running the Rides ‘N Rods show!

We look forward to checking this show out again next year!
