Tobay Beach LI NY Car Show May 2, 2026 Pt 1

Car Show Tobay Beach LI NY

My First Car Show for the 2026 season started off with a Bang! Long Island’s largest car show was held on May 2, 2026 and drew in 1,000 anxious owners and their cars.

The Car Show was held at Tobay Beach on the south shore of LI in the Town of Oyster Bay. We had a free concert, awards, vendors and more.

I posted a 45-minute video of the car show that I found on You Tube. That’s not me filming. He got there early and it was cloudy. I got there in the early afternoon and many more cars arrived after the weather improved.

I had to break up this car show in 2 parts to give it justice. So, this is Part 1 of the Tobay Beach Car Show LI and Part 2 will follow shortly.

Sit back, relax, and get your favorite beverage depending on time of day and welcome to the 2026 First Car Show of the season. Enjoy, Mario

My first car show of the 2026 season and it was fabulous! It was great going to a car show after the long cold and snowy winter we had here on Long Island, NY.

But Spring has sprung and the Tobay Beach Car Show did not disappoint. One of Long Island's largest car shows drew 1,000 cars.

This is Part 1 of 2 Parts and the 2nd part will be published shortly. Also enjoy the 45 minute video of this car show that I found on You Tube.

Let the Car Shows begin! Mario

There's a saying that variety is the spice of life. Well that being true, this is one spicey car show. Hard to believe the car show season is here. As yours begins, my car shows will be dwindling. If you can't find something you like here, I doubt you are living life in the collector car hobby. And this is only half of the show, so this is only a teaser to what's to come. grab some popcorn and as they say, let the rest of the show begin.... I didn't pick a favorite here just yet, I'm reviewing the pics until one jumps out at me.

Looking forward to the next half Mario..keep up the nice work, in the new season.

Pic 25 the 69 Camaro RS/SS with the dog dish hubcaps.....love the color on both this 69 and the Z/28. I'm just not a big fan of large wheels. Sure go 15 or 16 or 17 but any larger the dimensions in the wheel wells goes all wrong.

Just my humble opinion......keep the 2 cents.

That's a great choice Rob pic 25 of the 69 Camaro in Marina Blue, one of my all time favorite Chevy colors. My Jeep is Patriot Blue a little darker than Marina Blue but still a nice warm color.

I agree there should be something here for everyone. I tried getting pictures of many different styles of cars and colors, but there was so much to choose from.

So Part 2 will continue in the same theme of different choices and I broke it up in two so as to not overwhelm the reader. Part 2 coming up. Enjoy, Mario

Well before I forget, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE TO OUR COUNTRY NOT ONLY ON THIS MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND, BUT EVERYDAY......

God has blessed many people through your life, your contributions and service and dedication.

May we all take more than a moment to honor those who has impacted our lives, in ways we do not even know. Thank the anonymous ones as well as the known.

Rob

Thank you Rob for your kindness and best wishes on this Memorial Day weekend. I know we look at Memorial Day as the official start of summer and lots of good BBQ's. Which is all good.

But lets not forget the true meaning of Memorial Day or Decoration Day when we mourn the U.S. Military personnel who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. We place Flags on their graves in their Honor for their ultimate sacrifice for all of us.

Thank you Rob for remembering. Mario

In Flanders Fields BY JOHN MCCRAE

In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie, In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields.

This Poem was written in 1915 during WW1 by JOHN MCCRAE. Flanders Fields is located in Western Belgium.
