Automotive Aftercare Franchise Honors Classic
Cars and Modern Innovation at the World's Largest One-Day Auto
Event
TROY,
Mich., Aug. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Ziebart
International Corporation (Ziebart) – the worldwide leader in
premium automotive appearance and protection services for 65 years
– is proud to announce its role as a presenting partner for the
iconic Woodward Dream Cruise. This partnership highlights Ziebart's
ongoing commitment to the automotive community and its dedication
to preserving and enhancing the lifespan of vehicles.
"In the home for American auto innovation,
we can't wait to take even more of a part of Detroit history..."
The Woodward Dream Cruise, renowned as the world's largest
one-day classic car event, brings together car enthusiasts from
around the globe to celebrate classic cars and automotive culture.
The event originally began in 1995 to help raise money for a local
children's soccer field as owners of cars from the 1950s and 1960s
would gather to cruise America's first highway - Woodward Avenue -
through Detroit. Organizers were
shocked when about a quarter million people showed up and the Dream
Cruise has grown each year since. Today, the event draws more than
1 million people with over 40,000 classic cars and this year's
event promises to be even more spectacular with Ziebart's
involvement.
"The Woodward Dream Cruise is more than just an event; it's a
celebration of automotive history and passion," said Thomas A. Wolfe, President and CEO of Ziebart.
"As we commemorate Ziebart's history and its deep roots in the
Detroit area, we are thrilled to
partner with an event that shares our love for cars and dedication
to preserving their beauty and performance."
As Ziebart celebrates its 65th anniversary as the industry's
rustproofing pioneer, it continues to innovate and adapt,
prolonging the lifespan of countless vehicles. Attendees of the
Memorial Park Auto Show and the Woodward Dream Cruise on
August 16-17, can look forward to
vehicles new and old that can cruise comfortably, thanks in large
part to the rustproofing power of Ziebart. As a sponsor, Ziebart
and its new mascot, Bart, will be in attendance with a red 1959
Oldsmobile Super 88 to kick off the weekend event that will feature
the auto show, the Dream Cruise itself, and the Cruise in Shoes
5K walk/run. Continuing its
partnership with US Military veteran and family support group
Mission 22, Ziebart will also have opportunities for attendees to
donate to the non-profit group for a chance to win gift cards,
giveaways, and more.
"Throughout the weekend, it's always exciting to drive back into
history through automobiles that keep our history alive," continued
Wolfe. "In the home for American auto innovation, we can't wait to
take even more of a part of Detroit history and see the passion of people
from around the globe."
