This year’s three-day event features two standout car shows: Saturday’s Rod and Custom Dust-Off showcases hot rods, street rods, customs, race cars, and compact customs and pickups. Sunday is dedicated to unmodified antique and classic vehicles manufactured through 1998. Last year’s first-place winners will be highlighted in the Winner’s Circle.
The Rhinebeck Swap Meet remains a favorite for car collectors across the Northeast, with hundreds of indoor and outdoor vendor spaces. New vendors are welcome, but early registration is encouraged. A New York State tax ID is required to participate.
