A volunteer manning the traffic barricade at the intersection of Fourth and Division streets – where the autos on display entered the Lowbrow parking area – said the car count exceeded 100 by 4:45 p.m., 15 minutes before the event was to begin. A stream of cars continue to flow into the area well past 5 o’clock.
The car show was one portion of what proved to be an active evening along Division Street Saturday night. Also on tap were the opening reception for Lowbrow’s art show at the Northfield Arts Guild gallery and music performances at the Contented Cow.
