Remember the “Little Deuce Coup,” the “409,” T-birds, woodies and ‘vettes?

More than 300 of these classic, dreamboat ‘50s cars, plus coupes and trucks from the ‘30s and ‘40s, all in mint condition, will be displayed Saturday in two car shows in the San Gabriel Valley.

“Romancing the Classics” begins at 8 a.m. on the Arcadia High School parking lot, where more than 100 Chevies, Fords, Packards, Hudsons and Studebakers will take the spotlight.

Promoter Wayne Williams is featuring the cars in a music video being filmed that day. The Arcadia High School Pep Squad will also star in a sock hop number. The school pep squad will receive proceeds from the event.

Meanwhile, the Cruisin’ Fifties South Bay Car Club will cruise from the South Bay to the

Country Hills Towne Center in Diamond Bar with about 200 restored pre-1970 cars for its Classic Car Show.

Ford Mustangs, vintage Cadillacs and Plymouths are a few of the vehicles to be displayed, along with Model Ts, some souped up for racing.

The fee paid to the car club by the shopping center will benefit the Torrance Volunteer Center.

“Romancing the Classics” runs from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 180 Campus Drive, Arcadia. Admission is $1.50.

The Classic Car Show runs from 3 to 9 p.m. at the Country Hills Towne Center, at the intersection of South Diamond Bar Boulevard and Cold Spring Lane. Admission is free.
