For the past decade, every year on Super Bowl Sunday, Hillco Fasteners has opened its store for its customers to come visit before the big game. Usually more than 100 cars show up. This year the weather was perfect, and the time must have been right, because an estimated 300 cars filled the lots in front of the buildings facing the street and all of the parking around the Hillco store. Classic cars were still arriving by at 11:00.

As usual, it was a very eclectic collection of vehicles, ranging in age from 1914 to 2014, domestics and import cars, race cars, off-road cars, muscle cars, customs, hot rods, motorcycles, traditional rods and 10 big tractors! Hillco had a raffle and a 50/50 with the proceeds going to charity. If you weren’t there, come next year, but make it early.
