Get Out: Classic Car Show will Feature 1960s Batmobile

This Sunday, Atlantic Health Systems, along with Wigder Chevrolet and Warnock Automotive Group, will host the 10th annual , an event featuring classic antique vehicles, muscle cars and sports cars, at the Birchwood Manor in Whippany.

The event was previously scheduled for Aug. 7 but inclement weather postponed the event to this weekend.

The event was inspired by the community support for the son of foundation Executive Director Woody DeTrolio, who was diagnosed with leukemia at 17, as well as his son’s fascination with classic cars.

“We’re so happy with the enthusiasm that the event has been shown year after year, from the car owners to the spectators and families who come out to see them, to all of the volunteers and sponsors who make the show happen,” DeTrolio said. “Their support over the last decade has helped us create a legacy of kindness that will be remembered by so many families. We look forward to continuing this legacy for many years to come.”

In addition to the classic rides, the event will feature specialty cars such as the Batmobile (from the 1960s TV series), the Scooby Doo Van and the Dracula Car. New to the show this year will be an appearance and autograph signing by actor Butch Patrick, best known for his role of “Eddie Munster,” on the classic television series “The Munsters.”

Radio personalities and the street team from WDHA 105.5 FM, along with live musical performances and a disc jockey will also be featured at the event, as well as fun activities and games for kids.

All vehicles, including cars, trucks, motorcycles and military, are invited to participate. Sponsored trophies will be given for entries 25 years and older and pinstriping by Alan Johnson will be available.
