High School Challenge "Pride in Performance"

Les Schwab and the Multnomah Hot Rod Council are sponsoring two $500.00 "Pride In Performance" awards.

They will be judged on Excellence in Presentation and School Spirit.

 

Brush BashPaint Slingers Pin Striping Shootout

There’s nothing like watching some of the nation’s finest pinstripers performing their artistry on the coolest hot rods and customs.  They will be “laying it all on the line”, competing to be crowned “Best of the Best” at the Rose City Brush Bash.

 

 

Wagon Angels Event for the Chelsea Hicks Foundation!

Try to keep a dry eye as you meet young people going through the battle of their life as they receive a pull wagon that has been customized by local automotive shops and high school automotive programs.  Each child picks out "their" wagon, and then the pinstripers that are competing in the Brush Bash, personalize it with the child's name and any other special things that make it their own.  The Portland Roadster Show and Multnomah Hot Rod Council are extremely proud of this event and hope it brings just a little bit of joy to these courageous kids.

 

The latest and greatest from many of the region's (and Nation's) auto vendors.

You'll find treasures throughout the show from aftermarket automotive parts, NW custom car builders, die-cast toys, hot rod clothing and so much more.
