Visitors pay only the museum’s general admission fee (adults $7, students with ID and seniors 62 and older $6, children 12 and under $3) – there is no additional charge for car show. Museum members enter the show free.

Proceeds from a raffle will benefit AMVETS, one of the nation’s leading veterans service organizations, with more than 250,000 members.

The AMVETS mission is to enhance and safeguard the entitlements for all American veterans.

More than 100 cars will be on display on the Vanderbilt Estate grounds overlooking scenic Northport Bay. Included will be vintage and new Jaguar and MG models and a wide range of international and domestic sports cars and sedans.

SmokaBurger’s of East Northport will be selling burgers, hot dogs, sausage and peppers, and sandwiches. For information, contact Mike Carroll at 516-607-6074 or macsl300@aol.com.

In the Concours portion, Jaguars in the Championship, Driven and Special Division classes are judged under Jaguar Club of North America Concours rules, which emphasize excellence of appearance.

The Concours Sanitaire is open to British and selected international vehicles of all years, makes and models. Cars are judged solely on appearance, cleanliness and general condition. (Originality is not judged.)
