Mecum Harrisburg 2025 is back this summer, and it’s bringing more than just horsepower to Pennsylvania. With 1,200 cars rolling into the Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex from July 23-26, this year’s event isn’t just massive, it’s meaningful. The highlight? A student-built collection that’s stealing the spotlight for all the right reasons.
Mecum Harrisburg 2025 celebrates passion and craftsmanship
Car fans already know Mecum Harrisburg is one of the must-attend events of the year. But 2025 kicks things up a gear with the Winners Circle Project Collection, a nonprofit educational program where students, teachers, and industry pros collaborate on full-blown builds. The result? Four 1965 Factory Five Shelby Cobra Replica Roadsters and one Daytona Coupe, each with its own student-led personality. Every cent from these cars goes right back into supporting the program.
American icons and European legends collide
This year’s Harrisburg event isn’t just about learning and legacy, it’s about serious metal. Take The Dannie and Barbara McHone Collection, for instance. Straight from the “Golden Age,” this no-reserve collection includes a gorgeous Surf Green 1957 Chevy Bel Air Hardtop and a wild 1959 Dodge Coronet Lancer. The vintage vibes are real, and the nostalgia is turbocharged.
On the other end of the style spectrum, The American Muscle Car Collection offers fire-breathing machines like the 1970 Plymouth Cuda and a sun-loving 1967 Corvette Convertible. It’s the best of Detroit thunder in one place.
Mecum Harrisburg 2025 spotlights power and performance
Muscle fans will find plenty of reason to geek out. The 1994 Dodge Viper RT/10 Roadster returns to remind everyone why the ’90s weren’t just about grunge. Then there’s the rare 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T Convertible Pilot Car, Serial No. 21 and one of only 61 V-code six-pack convertibles ever built.
If European refinement is more your speed, a 1956 Mercedes-Benz 190SL Convertible in Medium Blue brings timeless class. And don’t overlook the red 1984 Ferrari 308 GTS Quattrovalvole built to Euro specs, it’s a blast of Maranello magic with sharper lines and rarer details than the U.S. model.
More than a sale, Mecum Harrisburg 2025 is an experience
Whether you’re into handmade student Cobras, retro-mods from the ’50s, or raw muscle that rattles your teeth, Mecum Harrisburg 2025 has something to stir your gearhead soul. With ESPN+ covering the action and streams on Mecum.com and YouTube, you don’t need to be there in person to feel the energy.
Summary
Mecum Harrisburg 2025 isn’t just another gathering of cars, it’s a celebration of design, engineering, and passion, all rolled into four days in Pennsylvania. From student-built Cobras to rare American muscle and European royalty, it’s the kind of event that reminds you why we love cars in the first place.
