Legendary Companies Announces Inaugural Charity Cruise-In

Legendary Companies, which includes Coker Tire, Wheel Vintiques, Phoenix Race Tires, Paragon Corvette Reproductions and more, has announced the inaugural Legendary Charity Cruise-In, an exclusive car show held in conjunction with the Chattanooga Motorcar Festival on Oct. 16.

All proceeds from the Legendary Charity Cruise-In will go to the Fifty Plus Foundation in support of CHI Memorial Hospital and the NeuroScience Innovation Foundation to help its efforts in neuroscience research to find a cure for Alzheimer’s Disease.

“Coker Tire has long been a supporter of local car events and has been promoting its own Chattanooga Cruise-In events for many years,” said President and CEO of Legendary Companies Wade Kawasaki. “Now, Legendary Companies has taken the reins with the Legendary Charity Cruise-In and we’re all excited about this great opportunity for our team to give back to the community and benefit some amazing charities.”

The Legendary Charity Cruise-In offers participants a chance to showcase their collector vehicles at the intersection of Riverfront Parkway and M.L.K. Blvd (875 West 9th Avenue). The Cruise-In will be just steps away from the Pace Grand Prix at the Bend, featuring historic race cars including open wheel cars, CanAm cars, GT cars and more. Participants will receive a special ticket package, which includes entry for one collector vehicle and two spectator admission tickets, which provide access to Saturday of the Chattanooga Motorcar Festival, the Grand Prix Paddock and Mecum Auctions.

Space is limited to 400 cars. Event staff will not accept entries at the gate without proof of ticketing. The entry fee is a donation of $100.

The gates will open at 5 a.m. ET and all cars must be parked before 7:30 a.m. Due to the expected crowd, all cars must remain in place until the close of the event at 3 p.m. The Cruise-In area will feature vendors, including food and drink options. Specialty awards from celebrity judges will be presented at 2 p.m.
