3 Red Rides

LA Roadster Car Show

The LA Roadsters Car Club has been around since 1957. Every Father’s Day Weekend they have a car show that benefits non-profit organizations. The Ford Roadsters are the key players at the show but many more rides show up to show-off. There is also a swap meet filled with all kinds of automotive finds. Thanks to the LA Roadsters for giving us the opportunity to take snap shots of the show. Look for photos of the show this week.

So many photos such a good time. The LA Roadster Car Show 2017

Catch a Car Show and enjoy the ride.

Getting to the car show early gave us the opportunity to showcase the show with the least amount of background noise. Working on a few notes on shooting digital and the art of the car show. The Los Angeles Roadster Car Show 2017 is in the Gallery. We broke it down into 3 parts, Building 4, outside roadsters, which is on a slide which you can click or just watch the show which is on a 5 second timer and outside mix-up showcasing roadsters and non roadster rides. There were so many amazing cars we could not post them all so the ones selected are the rides with the least noise in the background. Enjoy the show and looking forward to next year. Don't forget to scroll down and check out past Roadster Car Shows.

The Roadster Car Show & Swap Meet June 18, 2017

There is still time to catch the Roadsters at the LA Roadster Car Show and Swap Meet.  This is their 53rd year and the 37th at the Pomona fairgrounds. Took to the cool with an early morning start to beat the heat on Saturday. Should be hot again today so get there early if you can, show opens at 7AM. The Roadsters are showcased around the Fairplex grounds with a nice backdrop of trees so there is plenty of shade. Heading over to the swap meet you are greeted with non roadster vehicles, find Cadillac, Fords, Chevy's in all states of perfection. The swap meet is filled with car parts, classic cars and past vintage memories, it is a pretty big swap meet so if you are planning to walk around bring water, it is on the pavement. Building #4 houses the 60th Anniversary of the LA Roadsters Club with members rides and memorabilia. The model car competition and vendors are also in building 4 with more vendors and music located outside. The show runs today from 7-4. If you love history don't forget to check out the NHRA Museum. You can get a quick over view of the Museum at car-tografi NRHA.
