    Every year we look forward to seeing all of the fantastic new products that are introduced at the Street Rod Nationals.  Jack Lawford,  Hot Rod HotLine Editor, has been one of the  New Products Judges  for 4 years of the 10 years we have exhibited at the show and he is always amazed at the number of new products each year.  This year there were a total of  169 items judged.  In the 31 years that NSRA has had this program there have been a total of 3933 New products introduced at the show !    WOW ! 
There are three categories    Under $100,   $101-500   and over $500 plus an award for the best Safety Product.  This year was a banner year for new products....  so let’s take a look.

And the Winners  Are......

In the  “Over $500 Category, the winner was this awesome  ‘33 / ‘34 Ford Coupe body from Steves Auto Restorations in Portland, OR.     In the  $101-$500 Category the winner was the ‘32 -’34 Truck Windshield Wiper setup from Newport Engineering in Washington,  and in the under $100 Category, the winner was the Universal Gas Filler hose from Bob Drake,  Oregon.  The Safety Award went to  Watsons StreetWorks for their Pulsing Panic Stop Light.     Click on the photos for an enlarged view
