One thing you can always count on here in the Hudson Valley is that you’re going to see a lot of cool old cars. Especially in the spring and summer. Muscle cars, roadsters, primitive cars from the 1920s. Awesome old Corvettes and Mustangs. Yup, we've got a lot of cool cars and car enthusiasts in the Hudson Valley. I personally drove an old Volkswagen Beetle for years.

If you own an old or a classic car, or you just like to look at classic cars this is a good weekend for you to get out and enjoy some car shows. And motorcycles, too. I’ve put together a list of 5 really cool car shows going on this weekend.

Tomorrow, Aug. 7, check out the Carnwath Farms Car and Bike Show at 81 Carnwath Farms Lane in Wappingers Falls. There will be vendors, food, music, a beer garden, and trophies. Registration is at 9AM, and the show starts at 11AM.

Also tomorrow, and every Saturday  through October, you can head to the McDonalds in the Bridgeview Plaza in Highland for their Saturday Night Car Cruises from 5:30PM - 8:30PM. It’s always a lot of fun and you can check out some very cool cars.

This Sunday, Aug. 8 from 9AM - 3PM, it’s the Emerson Resort and Spa 2021 Car Show on Route 28 in Mt. Tremper, which was postponed last Sunday.

LOOK: See how much gasoline cost the year you started driving

To find out more about how has the price of gas changed throughout the years, Stacker ran the numbers on the cost of a gallon of gasoline for each of the last 84 years. Using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (released in April 2020), we analyzed the average price for a gallon of unleaded regular gasoline from 1976 to 2020 along with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for unleaded regular gasoline from 1937 to 1976, including the absolute and inflation-adjusted prices for each year.

Read on to explore the cost of gas over time and rediscover just how much a gallon was when you first started driving.
