The annual Basehor Car Show filled the parking lot at Basehor-Linwood High School on Saturday.

The show featured muscle cars, revamped farm trucks and everything in between. Visitors enjoyed an afternoon of admiring automobiles, food, music and raffle prizes while supporting 2013 Project Grad, which provides a drug- and alcohol-free post-graduation party for this year’s seniors.

Project Grad organizers did not know the total amount raised by press time, but winners for the car show were:

Chairman’s Choice: Don and Dottie Murphy, 1957 Ford Fairlane 500
