Several antique automobiles and motorcycles will be displayed on Main Street during Riverfest '97 this Friday and Saturday.

Riverfest organizers said this is the first year for the motorcycles to be displayed. Exhibitors have registered their vehicles from across the state.

Dr. W.A. Williams Jr. of the Williams Family Care Clinic will display a DeLorean automobile Friday and Saturday during the festival. There were only approximately 8,000 DeLoreans manufactured. The famous automobiles were made of stainless steel construction and were assembled in Ireland in 1982 and 1983. The car featured gull wing doors.
