The 25th Wings, Wheels and Keels (WW&K) is set for 8 a.m.-4 p.m. this Saturday, Sept. 25, at Hummel Field airport, 310 Plainview Road, Topping.

WW&K will have more than 100 antique, classic and exotic cars, numerous aircraft and more than a dozen boats, said event chairman Rusty Gill.

There will be a “free” children’s carnival with unlimited rides, and food and craft vendors and educational information.

Vehicles expected for the show include street rods, customs, vintage race cars and restored vehicles. Cars and trucks from just about every era of the automobile will be on display, said Gill.

Boats could include classic wooden boats to high performance enclosed, cockpit drag racing hydrofoils…
