For the 57th consecutive year the KCRG TV9 O’Reilly Auto Parts Rod &amp; Custom Car Show will help chase the Midwest winter blues away providing affordable family fun while showcasing unique and classic cars and motorcycles.
A new selection of show entries including street rods, custom cars, street machines, hot pickups, race cars and custom motorcycles — featuring some never seen before — will be competing for trophies from McAllister Electrical Services and Citizens State Bank cash prizes. The vehicles come from exhibitors throughout the Midwest.
This winter family fun event again will be held at the Monticello Berndes Center, 766 North Maple Street in Monticello, only 35 miles from Cedar Rapids or Dubuque on U.S. Highway 151.
A popular feature of the yearly event is a celebrity appearance and this year Tom Wopat aka "Luke Duke" from the TV show Dukes of Hazzard is making his way back to Monticello. 
In addition to the vehicles, added attractions include:
3-D Sound Company DJ Dave Palmer returns to provide music and commentary and serve as awards MC Sunday for the 25th year. Balloon artist “Papa Balloon” Mark Garvey again will be making free balloon creations. David Fliss, of Flissart Entertainment, will provide entertaining commentary while drawing free portraits for attendees. Also featuring the Knoxville Raceway Simulator.
The 41st Annual Model Car Contest will feature a new selection of scale model cars that will compete for trophies and model kits. This competition is open to all ages with categories for 12 years and under, 13 to 17, and 18 and over.
Spectators actively participate in voting for three awards: People’s Choice car/pickup, People’s Choice Motorcycle and People’s Choice Model car. Guests also become eligible for door prizes.
Special souvenir items including posters and T-shirts will be available. Once again the Monticello Eagles Club Ladies Auxiliary #4466 will be serving their famous turkey dressing sandwiches in addition to other food items — with profits going to community projects.
