It's getting to be that time of year again, time for the 2016 Deutsche Classic.
Saturday July 9, 2016.
Held outside of Reading PA at the Oley Fairgrounds, this show is known for a wide variety of German made vehicles and interesting oddities.
Show is held at a very nice location, food is great, swap meet to help you find that part you've been looking for, fun events throughout the day, cars range from daily drivers to high dollar restorations.
Make your plans now!
Much more information as well as many pictures from past events can be found here:

See you there! |

The info page says there is camping at the show on Friday. I am not sure of much in that region but will say that truck stops are for the most part very small ( where I end up "landing" at night with the trailer). The Cabelas has a big lot and allow overnight parking for anyone. No restrooms once the store is closed though. |

You should talk to my brother... he was thinking of doing the same thing. You guys should use the buddy system and meet up somewhere en route and make it a summer road trip!! _________________ 77 Westy - Cape Cod Sage

I'm also stuck for camping for this trip. My buddy and I were going to do tent camping, but I don't recall there being any place there. Is there even someplace near by for tent camping?

My brother and I camped in the field the night before. It was very quiet. Only 6 people were there for the night. But I think the show field is haunted. I kept hearing things.... _________________ Arachibutyrophobia- Fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of the mouth.

As of now I will be there.
Yes, there is camping on Friday night AT THE SHOW GROUNDS (outside the gate). It's in a big, open field. Plenty of room.
Not sure about camping in the area on Thursday or after the show.
Tom, if you're coming down, perhaps you could do a big chunk of driving on Thursday, camp in the Poconos somewhere, or along the Delaware, and then have a leisurely few hour drive to the camping at the show on Friday? |

Anyone from New England who is heading down to the DC that could stop by Clay & Mary's or meet them near their house (Willimantic CT) to pick up a couple smallish items for me and bring them to the show?
Could pay some gas money, beer, whatever. Send a PM if it's something you'd consider.
Thanks |

I will be headed to this show, since it's been a good 5 years since I last went.
What time does it start? |
