GNRS FEATURES
FEATURE ATTRACTION
Since 2017, building #9 at the Pamona Fairplex has played host to a feature exhibit at Grand National Roadster Show. That year marked the 60th anniversary of the Chevy tri-five which we chose to honor with some of the best examples from throughout the world. Since then, we have continued to highlight one class of cars to bring to guests and enthusiasts for display. In 2018, a special muscle car exhibit brought some of the rarest and most exciting muscle cars to ever come out of Detroit. In 2019 we celebrated the 90th anniversary of the Model A – celebrating custom and stock cars alike. The special feature in 2020 was titled “Drag Racing Then and Now” and it featured some of the fastest, most ground breaking and most interesting dragsters ever built.
Building #9 is a must visit stop on any trip to the Grand National Roadster show, full of surprises for even the most hardcore enthusiasts. Stop by and check it out!
PINSTRIPERS CHARITY AUCTION
Pin striping is as old as hot rodding, an art form passed down through the generations. Each year at the Grand National Roadster Show a portion of the main hall is dedicated to this art and the charities they help out. For a donation to the featured charity, which changes annually, visitors car have nearly anything pinstriped. Artists will also be creating unique works on signs, sculptures, and more which is auctioned off to support charity.

SUEDE PALACE
While Grand National Roadster Show has been running for over 70 years, it didn’t always look like it does now. Hot rods and hot rod culture has evolved since Al Sloner first founded the show. If you want to take a trip back in time, the Suede Palace is the place to go. The feature building features only traditional hot rods as well as the music and clothes of the era. Live bands and 50s era vendors surround you while you explore some of the most original hot rods at the show, some built using traditional materials and techniques, and many actually built in era.
So put on your zoot suit and head down to the seue palace, a must-visit stop at the Grand National Roadster Show.
