Since 1994, May has been a special month in Fullerton for car lovers. An exclusive event that is staged to attract both locals and visitors to a grand mansion and treat them to something special. This is the weekend of the highly anticipated Muckenthaler Motor Car Festival. This annual event draws thousands of auto enthusiasts from near and far to see and appreciate of the many forms of rolling art that have been chosen to participate. Each vehicle owner that made the judge’s roster hopes of taking home the trophy for the category for which they are competing.

The Muckenthaller Motor Car Festival two day, invitation-only event features hand-selected examples of automotive perfection displayed and scrutinized by the expert panel of judges.

Saturday is set aside for classic American Hot Rods and Customs and Sunday for the Concours de Elegance, the judges run a proverbial fine-tooth comb over the field of contender vehicles to ensure that only the best are awarded.
