(Photos by Darr Hawthorne) \u2013<\/strong>\u00a0<\/em>For nearly forty years, West Coast Customs Cruizin\u2019 Nationals holds a show at Santa Maria Fairpark on California\u2019s Central Coast. Farming, hot rodding, customizing and racing are traditions in this car town \u2013 dating back to the early 50\u2019s when one of the first California drag strips was out on an old runway that is now Foster Road.<\/p>\n

This huge show attracts hundreds of pre-1965 hot rods, lead sleds, cruisers, trucks and newly completed local customs to the packed fairgrounds.\u00a0On Friday night the town closes off the main drag for a cruise that the residents of Santa Maria enthusiastically support.<\/p>\n

There are so many awesome cars, we\u2019ve broken them down into five galleries and here is our gallery of nothing but bitchen 50’s and 60’s hot rods! Video from the cruise is below as well!<\/p>\n
