  • Wink's, Barberton, OH near Akron

    Tomorrow is the big Wink's annual Studebaker show in Barberton, OH, on Rt. 619. Wink's is a '50's drive-in restaurant with good burgers and shakes, etc., and there are typically about 150 Studes and Packards there. Official time is 3-11 but many get there earlier. A couple miles away is Belgrade Gardens, a 75-year old restaurant that still fries chicken in lard and it is DELICIOUS! That's where I'm eating en route there!

    Hope to see you there!

    Sounds like fun.
    When I lived in Ohio (when I was in the USAF at Dayton) I didn't have any collector cars...too bad as there is always a lot of car events, people, shows, shops, etc.

      Bill,
      Some of we Allegheny Region folks will be there. Weather forecast looks great too.

      I'm bringing the Keystone Chapter's Raffle Car (1982 Avanti II). Wear your sunglasses 'cuz it's really RED![8D] And don't spend all your $$$ at the chicken place. Save some for tickets.

      Prices are $ 1.00 ea, 8 for $ 5.00, 20 for $ 10.00.

        My brotheer and I will be there not sure what we are driving either the Avanti or 57 truck depending how we feel before leaving. If it going to be humid the Avanti with air is nicer to ride in than the no air truck

          I expect to be there in my '53 coupe. I plan to arrive before 2, leave before dark.
