A true original and a kind man. Rest I peace my friend.

I have been fortunate to meet so many legends in the Hot Rod and Kustom car world. No one was kinder than Roger, no one was more genuine than Roger, and no one was kooler than Roger.

Get ready to fire up your creativity at the 12th Annual Hot Rod Holiday Show!

There are three great ways to show off your creative skills this year at the show:

1. Model Car Show & Contest (West Hall)
Build it, paint it, and show it off! Enter your custom model for a chance to take home an award and bragging rights. Once in the show, it is just $5 to enter as many models as you would like. Full rules are at the web page for the show - https://www.ozarkempirefair.com/p/events/ozark-empire-fairgrounds-produced-events/hot-rod-holiday

2. Valve Cover Races (Center Hall)
Bring your own valve cover that is ready to run and stop by the Hot Rod Hangout booth and race it on the track. Not sure how to make one. Just bring your valve cover and they have everything you need to turn it into a racer and send it flying down the track.

3. Coloring Contest with Curry’s Hot Rod Shop (East Hall)
Free to enter, fun for all ages, and prizes to win! Show off your creative side with some classic hot rod color.

Bring the family and spend the day surrounded by cool cars, good food, and great people.

Over 150 vehicles on display, mouthwatering BBQ from Q66, refreshing drinks from Vixen’s Brew, Santa on site both days, plus vendors, automotive artists, and so much more!
