CEMA Charity Car Show 2014

Posted on by

CEMA Charity Car Show 2014Presenting one of MCG’s favorite Motor City events: the annual CEMA car show at the Walter P. Chrysler Museum. Here’s the story with a big photo gallery. 

 

 

CEMA is short for Chrysler Employees Motorsports Association, a worthy organization made up of Chrysler workers, past and present, who also happen to be racers and car enthusiasts (CEMAclub.org). This marked the 25th edition of the club’s annual charity car show, which this year was held in support of Leader Dogs for the Blind in Rochester, Michigan, and Interfaith Volunteer Caregivers in Centerline, Michigan.

Traditionally, the show is held on the grounds of the Walter P. Chrysler Museum at Chrysler headquarters in Auburn Hills.  Although the museum is no longer open to the public, unfortunately, Chrysler management continues to make the grounds available for the show and opens the museum’s doors for the day.

Chrysler brands are well-represented at the CEMA show, not surprisingly. However, the show is open to all makes and models and features a fabulous variety of automotive eye candy. You’ll find a very small fraction of the many hundreds of vehicles at this year’s event in the gallery below.

  1. Thanks for joining us Bill. We had approximately 500 vehicles onsite, a record for us. The museum was enjoyed by 2200 people during the day. Thanks to the donations may the charities will benefit by the generosity of those who attended and CEMA. See you all next year!

  2. It was painful to be reminded of the Prowler. Such a great idea gone bad. They didn’t have to put a V8 in it but they should have made it big enough for one to be installed. The H. R. Giger grille and headlight treatment didn’t do it any favors either. Damn regulations.

    Nice to see a Model T that proves they weren’t really all black.

    I would never have guessed in 1970 that I’d eventually be nostalgic over a lowly Duster.

  3. From about 1964 to about 1974, Chrysler, well Dodge and Plymouth, turned out some really neat cars. They made those late 50’s and early 60’s models look like cartoon cars with the streamlined styling of the mid 60’s and early 70’s cars. I always wanted a 71-73 Cuda or Challenger.

    It’s too bad that quality and styling went downhill in the late 70’s and 80’s. I think it turned a lot of people against Chrysler for a long time.
