Foul Air Klub & Wetdub are hosting another German car event with a much bigger venue do too the overflowing of the overflow show last year.

We had over 200 cars with over 160 registered last year. We now have acres of grassy parking & special camping areas as well as tons of vendor space.

This year should bring in well over 200 cars. Along with the long running show at the Best Western Inn of the Ozarks will be over 500 VW's, and several other German cars in one place! Lets make it a thousand this year!

Once again come and go as you please type of an event. Not about the trophies but camaraderie.

Please consider hanging out with us in this amazing small town located in the Ozarks with some of the best driving roads in America.

More information on the web site. Questions comments always welcome.

We just hit enough pre registered people to include a free Sunday morning breakfast.

Unfortunately due to our kitchen needing an accurate count a week in advance this can only be for pre registered guests.

Day of we can allow for a guest & children of the registered for an additional fee I can not publicly disclose.

More details to follow. Itinerary will be available on Friday before the show. Things keep changing as funds come in. You still have time to pre register so get on it! http://www.eurekaspringscarshow.com/

Goody bag items like last year are purchased from your entry fee! The more we get, the more you get.

Foul air klub. Changing how car shows should be done.

The foul air show was held at a religious shrine on the far side of town I got a few pics of that as well. I'll put them up later.

Sorry but I didn't get a picture of the show during its height. I was really impressed but the metal art being done by one vendor. So here's a few pics and I hope someone puts up more.

Great pics! We had 181 registered and the best guess is over 100 non registered. Almost ran out of room lol. Too bad you didn't make it back over. The Ozark event paid for and provided a free shuttle service to and from both shows.

It was really exciting that we had a long time VW owner and certified VW Mechanic return to Eureka Springs giving us another chance and got our longest distance travel award at just over 900 miles!

Godspeed on your return home Connie Holcomb!

Thanks everyone who made it out to Eureka Springs Arkansas no matter what show you attended! Lets shoot for 3000 VW's in 2017!

You should have stuck around. This show was awesome and a breath of fresh air to the Eureka Springs VW weekend. Foul Air did a fabulous job.

It was the highlight of my VW life. The Passion Play's facilities were amazing. I wanted to get over to the other show but I had more than I could look at in in the time I had. Next Year my Beetle will be closer to my dream and I can't wait to bring him back.

Great to read this and yes please do come back!

Here's a quick roll through video I found on youtube that was still pretty early in the day. We had no gaps in the first 2 rows by late afternoon.

Yes from the looks of it you had a great show. Did anyone get pics of the guy making custom front end beams? This is a very talented individual, I bought a couple of license plate badges and the VW man. Someone told me he always sells out of merchandise. If there were five different shows I'd try to hit them all. Very Happy strength in numbers, or maybe its strength through joy. Let's do it again next year.

Laughing Love it! I think he is part of our Foul Air Missouri chapter. The VW plate badges came in every goody bag this year and last. I'll do some checking and chime back in here.
