Largo art festival, classic car show draws crowd

It was a blast from the past.

Five hundred people came out Saturday to check out the coupes, convertibles and Model Ts parked along the brick streets near Ulmer Park.

The evening, part of the two-month-long Largo: HeART of Pinellas Art Festival, gave car enthusiasts an opportunity to share knowledge as well as show off their rides, said Craig Dolan, the event organizer.

If you missed the event, which got a little chilly with the temperature hovering near 50 degrees, the program is expected to return next year.

"We will do it again. It gives these car owners a chance to showcase these incredible automobiles,'' Dolan said.
