Tips For First-Time Car Meet & Car Show Attendees
Thinking about hitting your first car show or meet in Cheyenne? Whether you’re showing off your ride or just stopping by to check out the scene, there’s nothing quite like joining the local car culture.
Cheyenne Cowboys & Cars hosts monthly events that bring together classic, muscle, JDM, and supercar enthusiasts from across Wyoming and Northern Colorado. But if it’s your first time, here are some tips to make sure you show up right and soak it all in like a pro.
1. Arrive Early, Especially If You’re Bringing a Car
Spots fill up quickly, especially for popular meets. Early birds get:
The best parking/viewing spots
Early access to talk with builders and owners
Better lighting for photos
2. Don’t Touch the Cars Without Permission
This is rule number one at every show. Always ask before getting too close or leaning on someone’s build, even a harmless selfie could smudge a freshly waxed finish.
3. Bring Cash or Venmo for Merch & Food
Most meets (including ours) feature:
Local food trucks
Club merch (shirts, decals, stickers)
Raffles and prize draws (Pro Tip: Always bring small bills or a phone with Venmo/CashApp ready)
4. Want to Display Your Car? Keep It Clean
Even if your ride isn’t a showstopper yet, a quick wash and vacuum goes a long way. People respect effort, especially at grassroots clubs like Cheyenne Cowboys & Cars.
5. Be Social – That’s the Point!
Talk to other enthusiasts
Ask questions about builds
Network for future car shoots, mod help, or sponsors
It’s not just about horsepower — it’s about community.
6. Follow the Event Rules
Each location has guidelines such as no burnouts, no excessive or sometimes no revving at all, no blocking certain areas and no trash left behind. We want to keep events going, so respect the spots.
7. Tag the Club in Your Photos
When you post photos/videos, tag @CheyenneCowboysCars and use our hashtags like:
#CheyenneCarMeet
#WyomingCarScene
#CheyenneCowboysAndCars
Bottom Line:
Car shows in Cheyenne are all about sharing the passion. Whether you’re a tuner, a lowrider lover, or just car-curious, there’s a spot for you at Cheyenne Cowboys & Cars.
Why Classic Cars Still Rule The Road In Wyoming
In a world of Teslas and turbocharged imports, it’s easy to think the era of classic cars is over. But here in Wyoming, especially in Cheyenne, classics still reign supreme.
From 60s Mustangs and old-school trucks to roaring Camaros and perfectly preserved Bel Airs, you’ll see vintage muscle rolling down I-25 or posted at meets like Cheyenne Cowboys & Cars.
So why do classic cars still hold the crown here?
1. They’re Built for the Wide-Open Roads
Wyoming’s landscape demands cars with character. The long highways, mountain views, and open stretches are perfect for cruising in a ‘66 Impala or ‘72 Charger.
2. They Carry Generational Pride
Many locals grew up turning wrenches with their parents or grandparents on these old-school beasts. Driving one isn’t just about the sound — it’s about family, roots, and stories passed down.
3. They’re Easier to Work On (and Mod)
Unlike modern cars filled with electronics, classics are hands-on machines. That’s a huge draw for hobbyists across Wyoming who enjoy working in garages, restoring frames, and customizing interiors.
4. They Turn Heads at Every Meet
No matter how exotic the supercar next to them is, a spotless classic car always gets attention. At our meets, you’ll see kids and adults light up when a vintage GTO rumbles in.
5. They’re More Than Cars — They’re Culture
In Cheyenne and across Wyoming, classic cars symbolize freedom, craftsmanship, and legacy. Whether it’s an old farm truck or a custom rat rod, it’s a story on wheels.
Classic Car Owners: We See You
At Cheyenne Cowboys & Cars, we welcome everything from bagged trucks to track-built Subarus — but classic car owners? You’re the soul of the scene.
