NORTH BEND, Ore. - From Corvettes to Camaros and everything in between, the North Bend Lanes parking lot was turned into a mini car showroom floor on Saturday for the annual July Jubilee Show 'N Shine.

Cars of all shapes and sizes lined the lot for people to look at and enjoy.

While there were some more modern makes and models, the majority of the cars were from many decades past, like a 1957 Chevrolet Bel-Air two door hard top owned by North Bend resident John Morgan.

"I had to take the whole car off the frame, restore the frame, and then put the body back on and have it all painted and everything. I only drive it about 1,000 miles a year mostly to shows," says Morgan.

Morgan says it costs at least $1,000 a year for him to keep the car in mint condition, but he says it's an investment that's well worth it.

Other cars featured at the show and shine included a Volkswagen VW Bus, a 1967 Camaro, and even the North Bend Fire Department brought out one of their old engines to show off during the morning.
