The world's longest running indoor car show is now in its 68th year; on Jan. 27 in Pomona, Calif., more than 500 vehicles will compete for awards, while another 400-800 will join in Jan. 28-29. Each year's iteration of the Grand National Roadster Show has a theme, and this year's is "The Magic Happens Here," so it's sure to be a fantastically good time!
The most highly anticipated of the many awards handed out at this show is the America's Most Beautiful Roadster award. Last year's winner was a 1932 Ford Roadster belonging to Darryl and Terri Hollenbeck, shown in the photo below - it's certainly a gorgeous vehicle! It will be exciting to see how this year's winner compares.
General admission tickets are $25 per day, but pre-sale discounts grant $2 off of that. Parking is $10. To puchase tickets, find lodging or just get more information about this can't-miss event, visit RodShows.com.
Motorhead Media is proud to announce that we'll be sponsoring this year's Pinup contest with amazing photographer Mitzi Valenzuela. The Pinup contest is always a blast, as you can see from the photo below, taken at last year's show.
We were fortunate enough to have three photographers send us pictures from the 2016 Grand National Roadster Show, so if you want to have an idea of what to expect from this event, check out their full coverage in the links below.
We hope to see you there!
