2022 Road Kings Classic Car Show

Johnny Carson Park in Burbank, California, was the perfect location for the car show. This sweet little hidden gem has a two-level open lawn space, creating a picture-perfect atmosphere for a car show.

The Road Kings

Car Club

one of the oldest in the United States, there is history at this car show.

This is one of our favorite car shows, and we love taking
The Ranchero and the Blue Q out for a day of fun.

 

The two-level venue is divided by a wildlife riverbed with a rolling lawn landscape on the upper level with large shade trees covering the park. The lower level had the main stage, music, car show vendors, and all the Road Kings car show activities.

Getting to the car show early in the morning is essential when part of the show is taking photographs for the website. The sun is kinder to the ride in the morning, but the morning ritual of cleaning the car for hours can block the camera from getting the photograph.
So the search begins; the happy hour of walking through the car shows in search of the camera shot before the crowd arrives.  

This year's show was a full house; with some amazing rides and classic car details.
It was a lot of fun, and seeing the So Cal Falcons and other recognizable faces after two years was nice. Thanks to all who stopped by for a look at the Ranchero and enjoyed a few hot dogs on the Blue Q.

A special thanks to the Road Kings!

Enjoy the show.

Grand National Roadster Show 2022

Always the best, the Grand National Roadster Classic Car Show 2022

The Grand Nationals Roadster Show is back, and the car show did not disappoint. Unfortunately, getting in was a little bit crazy, and the mask ordinance was off the mark, so shooting the car show inside the building was difficult at best. Hopefully, next year the classic car show will be a little more organized, but the rides, well, they were beyond amazing.

The steering wheel takes control

By the late 1800s, the steering wheel was a standard feature, often embellished with layers of chrome, wood, metal, plastic finishes, reflecting the signature of the ride from the inside.

Photographing steering wheels at classic car shows pulls you in with each design, slowly the wheel introduces the dashboard backdrop working in unison with color and style.

Check out The Wheel Collection at car-tografi where it is all about the parts.
