All Wheels Weekend lets beauty shine again. Not many people can say that their car has been in the family for over 50 years, but Dayton resident Gene Robanske is one of the few. "This car belonged to my uncle, who lived in Lake Havasu." His uncle gave Robanske the car in 1994. The all-original 1968 Cadillac Coupe DeVille lives a pampered life, stored in an air-conditioned garage. "One funny story about this car; when I went down to go get it, it was sitting on carpet in the garage," Robanske shared.

A trio of vintage motorcycles, owned by Rick Lentz of Dayton, weren't about to let all of the cars steal the show. "This is a 1975 Honda 754. It's got 12,000 original miles, and it's all stock," said Lentz, motioning to one of three bikes brought to the show by the collector. "This is a 1974 Harley Davidson 350, with 1,500 original miles. Both of these were bought from the original owners." The final bike, a 1979 Yamaha 650, had just 4,000 original miles.

This green 1970 Chevy Chevelle was a lesson in purchasing cars online for one car enthusiast at All Wheels Weekend. "I call it my eBay lesson," said Steve Bearar, of Pasco, WA, while laughing. "We had to strip it, and start from scratch. It wasn't as advertised." Bearar and his wife, Sue, have been working to restore the now glamorous American Classic since purchasing the car ten years ago.
