The Wheels of Time Annual Rod & Custom Car Jamboree is held every year on the weekend BEFORE Labor Day weekend. I say this because this way reservations can be made, vacations taken and all-round planning will be easier.The show is held at the Macungie Memorial Park, 50 N Poplar St, Macungie, PA 18062.
We are happy to present this show for your enjoyment and to give you a chance to show off your ride and to give you a great weekend of fun, relaxation and an opportunity to meet with friends.
If you have never been here, you do not know what you are missing.
We are also happy to be able to continue helping so many local charities and helping many of the local Vo-Tech Automotive Technology graduates further their education with our Scholarship Program.

The Annual Friday Evening Cruise
Last year’s cruise through the neighboring roads and the towns of Macungie and Emmaus was a fabulous success. More cars than ever participated and we believe more people than ever watched and enjoyed watching.
The annual Friday night cruise through Emmaus will again go on for the first 200 show cars that sign up on Friday at the show. This has been a long time favorite of the community.
The route is described below.
The cruise leaves Allen Organ on Rt 100 at 6:45 pm then travels through Macungie via Main St to Buckeye Rd to Chestnut St in to Emmaus. East to Main St then north on State Ave to Harrison St, west to North St past the Home of the Hornets who kick off at 7PM, then north on Cedar Crest to Lower Macungie Rd. We hope you enjoy watching us as much as we enjoy being there for you.
