“ Ya Gotta know where to Go….The FUN Starts Here….”

Pre or Post 1948….which is right? Fast forward to now. Both NSRA and now GOODGUYS have “bumped” the eligibility date to 1988 or earlier for entries into events. GOODGUYS had been at 72 & Earlier since forever, but announced last year that they were expanding the date. Now for both organizations, they caught a lot of backlash from members and non members too. We as hot rodders tend to get stuck in a rut, Yes We Do, and folks gave their input on the change. Personally I am ok with it. I believe this will bring some new “blood” into our hobby. The “newer” cars tend to be more affordable for hot rodders just getting started. And As I have written on other occasions, our hobby and lifestyle is getting older with not a lot of younger folks jumping in these days. Take a look around a major event….a lot of guys with gray on top and on their chins too. I will ask you this...to those of you who don’t care for the 1988 & earlier limit, why do you go to local shows that are advertised as OPEN TO ANY & ALL entries? It’s kind of contradictory to say one thing and then do another...isn’t it? How about we just have hot rod fun...I’m IN!

Welcome to Summer 2018 gearheads! Bet you didn’t see that coming. Neither did we! While the calendar says it’s summer on June 21st, in our neck of the woods it has been “summer like” with HOT temps basically since winter ended. We really didn't have any spring...time to quit complaining...lol With summer comes more car fun. Some of the big shows will be going on, so go have some fun, as life is short. Here’s a question for you as you plan your summer fun...does it matter if vehicles from 1988 and earlier are allowed into a show? This is a hot button debate with a fair number of gearheads across the country. For years the national shows and events were open to Pre ‘48 and earlier only. NSRA have the fore thought to create a “STREET MACHINE Division for ‘49 and later. I joined it way back when. Right about now a lot of you are going What is he talking about? If you got gray in your hair or beard, you can relate. This was a smart move (my opinion as a member) as not everybody was into a pre-48 vehicle and muscle cars were the rage too. Over time that deal kind of died a quiet death, as changes were going on all over.

JAY LENO’S GARAGE ANNOUNCES A REVOLUTIONARY, EASY-TO-USE SPRAY SEALANT – RADIANT New advanced silica-based spray sealant is simple to apply and can be used as an alternative to wax.

Jay Leno’s Garage Advanced Vehicle Care line has added Radiant, a silica-based spray sealant that creates a hydrophobic coating, to its existing lineup of high-quality products. This new spray sealant formula is more robust than a wax. The silica-based sealant acts very different from a wax in that it actually generates a curing property once applied to a surface. Once properly applied and cured, silica-based sealants are extremely resistant to water, soaps and environmental pollutants. Applying the product is easy and requires misting a section of the vehicle with a few sprays, distributing Radiant across the entire section with a soft microfiber towel, then using the dry section of towel to buff to a shine. Radiant takes 30-60 minutes to cure and can provide up to three months of durable paint protection. Radiant is available in both 16oz spray bottles and gallon containers. Like all JLG AVC products, Radiant is made and bottled in the USA. The entire Jay Leno’s Garage Advanced Vehicle Care line was specially designed by Jay and his team to clean and protect even the most delicate finishes with professional grade formulations. For more information and to purchase products, please visit www.lenosgarage.com. Jay Leno’s Garage Advanced Vehicle Care – Jay Leno’s Garage is synonymous with beautiful and valuable cars and after more than 20 years of trying every detailing product on the market, Leno and his team decided that they could do a better job of developing superior car care products that would suit their unique needs and the needs of detailers and DIYers around the world. After working closely with inhouse chemists and product engineers, the result is the Jay Leno’s Garage Advanced Vehicle Car line. All of the Jay Leno’s Garage Advanced Vehicle Care chemicals are formulated and bottled in the USA. For more information, visit www.lenosgarage.com. 6

The National Street Rod Assoc. put out the call for hot rodders, street rodders and all gearheads to head west for the 42nd time this past April. They invited car lovers to one of the biggest West Coast car shows all year long.

For the 32nd time since the event moved, it was held once again at the Kern County Fairgrounds in little ‘ol Bakersfield CA.

Like most car show organizations, NSRA has bumped up eligibility to be part of the fun to vehicles 1988 and older. 48

“Street rods, Hot rods, Vintage vehicles, Rat rods, Trucks, Customs, Muscle Cars and Street Machines both foreign and domestic were on hand at the Kern County Fairgrounds the last weekend in April.

Almost all of the Kern County Fairgrounds was utilized for the event as well as many of the buildings, which housed a large number of manufacturer and dealer displays and other attractions.”

Like always, participants and spectators both, checked out the vast array of cars from different eras, Included in this event are muscle cars, factory produced high horsepower machines from the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s along with the classics cars of the 50’s. This is truly unique mix of old and new together at the KC Fairgrounds and a national gathering of fine vintage automobiles of every description. 50

The NSRA Western Street Rod Nationals is the area’s largest automotive participation event and spectators from around the area as well as neighboring states and some long distance haulers attended the event. The NSRA Western Street Rod Nationals is an excellent event for spectators and those who attended were treated to the sights and sounds of some of the most beautiful, best constructed vintage vehicles ever assembled in one place. As the participant already know, but one of the special attractions for the spectators is that they can walk right up to the vehicles and check each one out close up as they are not roped-off or otherwise confined. All are in the open and can be examined top to bottom, front to back, inside and out. While the exquisite paint and other features of the cars were not be touched, spectators were free to look to their heart’s content. If you missed this year Big GO WEST Event, check out all these cool shots we have here for you and make your plans now to attend the 43rd Annual Western Street Rod Nationals in Bakersfield, California.
