Coffee & Classics® Winnetka

.

Fuelfed’s Coffee & Classics® has grown very quickly since the first 24 cars showed up in Winnetka in September of 2010. These events quickly evolved into the premier monthly Sunday morning gathering, and while others try to emulate it, there is only one original. An incredible array of beautiful ultra-rare and historically-significant European classics all driven to and park along Winnetka’s beautiful village center.

Gracious owners are as excited to chat and mingle as the local residents are to stroll and view. Nothing comes close to the level and variety of European classics on display. We are very proud the automotive press has dubbed Fuelfed’s Coffee & Classics in Winnetka “the Crown Jewel” of car shows in the Midwest.

Coffee & Classics parking in Winnetka is for:

• Non-members driving classic European cars (1995 and older) may park within the event with a $20 donation EXCEPT IN SEPTEMBER. Donation goes toward membership if they apply.

We’re not trying to be the biggest, only the best for our members.

Note: The American Classics and modern European cars you’ll see belong to members who were grandfathered in. They know who they are.

We ask drivers to download windshield display cards and fill out their car’s vitals. This will allow the rest of us to appreciate the classic even if the driver isn’t near by to chat.
