The National Street Rod Association® is pleased to announce the dates for the Western Street Rod Nationals coming to the Kern County Fairgrounds in Bakersfield, California.

This year marks the 32nd time the National Street Rod Association® has chosen Bakersfield as their host city for this event.

Vehicles will be driven from all parts of the United States to make this a truly unique gathering of vintage automobiles featuring nearly every make, model and style. In addition to street rods this event includes all vehicles from the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s and through 1988, adding to the automotive excitement created by past events.

Spectators will be treated to the sights and sounds of some of the best constructed, most beautiful vintage automobiles ever to gather in one place.

This event will include manufacturer displays representing leading automotive specialty and aftermarket suppliers, as well as a “Women’s World” area with arts and crafts. A vintage car parts “swap meet” adds to the experience and helps the enthusiast find these “one of a kind” parts.
