(Words and\u00a0photos by Doug Gregory) –\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>If these articles ran in sequence then this is the end of the general event coverage from the 2017 edition of the NSRA Street Rod Nationals.\u00a0 I have a club feature in the works and a couple cars that caught my eye got a few more photos than anything else so I will likely do up something for them.\u00a0 Overall this event was a good one with over 10,000 cars entered.\u00a0 If you like to look (at hotrods and such), check out new offerings from the aftermarket, good conversation, or need that certain thing from the swap meet I suggest you come out next year.\u00a0 It\u2019s a treat for the eyes, ears, and soul of a true gearhead.<\/p>\n

Highlights in this gallery\u2026.\u00a0\u00a0 How about a powder blue Chevy 3100 sporting a Buick Nailhead.\u00a0 Then there\u2019s the faded blue 70s Olds Cutlass wagon toting a serious load inside and on top.\u00a0 The square-body GMC Sierra Grande long roof was pretty sharp and stood out in its classic simplicity.\u00a0 Anyone else miss two-tone paint\u2026?\u00a0 This 50-yr-old man learned something new on this day.\u00a0 It was a bit of knowledge my 17-yr-old already had and didn\u2019t previously share with me.\u00a0 The Prancing Moose\u2026\u00a0 So I was checking out this very well-done LS-swapped Volvo wagon and there\u2019s this emblem that looks somewhat like a prancing horse\u2026but not.\u00a0 When questioned my son opens up and tells me about it.\u00a0 Most excellent nameplate for these and I definitely approve (not that my approval matters).\u00a0 We close this one out with a faux-wood-paneled, faux Laguna S-3 Malibu wagon.\u00a0 Wow.<\/p>\n

And on that note we\u2019re done.\u00a0 Thanks for checking out the coverage.<\/p>\n
