Over 100 classic Mercedes-Benz owners and a wealth of spectators made the trek to the Northern New Jersey Mercedes-Benz Club’s 60th annual “June Jamboree” car show, hosted by the Bridgewater Manor in Bridgewater, NJ.
Vehicles competed in 13 classes of Concours judging, where each was scrutinized by judges and rated on a point system for authenticity and cleanliness of:
1. Interior, upholstery, trunk, hard top, soft top
2. Chrome, plastic, rubber, glass, lights, trim.
3. Engine compartment.
4. Exterior paint, finish, bodywork.
Equally participated in was the “Popular Vote” category where show goers simply vote for their favorite vehicle entries, split into seven categories based on vintage. Classic Cars Today Online was there, and here are some of the photos we captured. To enlarge any picture, right click on the image and select “Open Tab In New Window”.

About Sean
Welcome to Classic Cars Today Online! We seek to explore the subject of classic vehicles from the 1950s through today. It is our belief that a car needn't be old to be respected and admired for graceful design, historical significance, and future value. As founder and Editor-In-Chief, I welcome contributions from you about your own car-related interests and ownership experiences. As far as myself, I've worked in the automotive service field and have been a contributor to Autoweek Magazine, The Star, Mercedes Enthusiast Magazine, Examiner.com and more. Currently, I'm a copywriter and own several foreign and domestic classic cars. In my spare time, you'll find me serving as Technical Editor and officer of several car clubs, being a concours car show judge, and meeting some great folks around the tri-state NY / NJ / Pennsylvania area at car shows. - Sean Connor
