FYI

There is no Arlington Car Show on Sunday.

Past organizers Bevy and Gil Wold have been receiving calls like crazy about a show.

Bevy Wold said they have no idea who floated a rumor about a Rusty Relics Car Show.

“I don’t know where the information came from,” Bevy Wold said, “But the Rusty Relics did not have an Arlington Car Show scheduled for 2006.”
