With an expected crowd in the excess of 70,000 people, the 45th Street Rod Nationals is well underway at the Kentucky Expo Center in Louisville, Kentucky. The epicenter for a mass of an estimated 10,000 plus automobiles, the National Street Rod Association will host the event from Thursday, July 31st to Sunday, August 3rd. 2014 will be the twentieth time the Street Rod Nationals has been hosted in cardinal country.
With not a clear patch of black top or grass for as far as the eye can see, the mass of automobiles is breathtaking to say the very least. From street rods to muscle cars, rat rods to classics, from the swap meet to vendor booths, there is something for everyone in the family! Whether you are a die-hard gearhead or a car enthusiast, one will not be disappointed with a trek to the heart of The Bluegrass State to witness this spectacular event in person.
While the clear blue skies overhead in Louisville are filled with the roar of lumbering jumbo jets filtering in and out of the nearby airport, the parking lots and fields echo with the sounds of musical icons on the loudspeakers, rumble of cams, throaty exhaust, and pure American Muscle. The perfect combination for a gorgeous late-summer afternoon day.
Said to be the biggest annual vintage car show across the globe, one day is barely enough to put a dent in all this incredible event has to offer. Prepare for sensory overload from the moment you step on the grounds and begin to take it all in.
