LEIGH, Neb.- Around 65 people shined up their cars and are showing them off at the 21st annual Leigh car show.

The show has been put on by Jim Magsamen all 21 years.

While there is not a specific requirement for the cars, most car enthusiasts bring their classic cars, but a few newer ones can be seen.

Magsamen said that around 40-150 cars show up every year.

"It's an awesome feeling, you know, we get different people every year from different towns." Magsamen said, "we had people from Atkinson come this year which is a long ways away, so it's awesome."

All proceeds from the car show goes back into the community.

A free will donation lunch is provided by the American legion.

The show is a non-judge show and all entries are put in the next years calendar.
