Pete’s Fabrications
In its third year, the Triple Crown of Rodding keeps getting smoother, stronger, and more refined—like a finely aged bourbon, each year’s competition distills the craft down to its boldest, most balanced builds. The 2025 event brought a level of intensity and talent that proved just how far the hobby has come. Builders came prepared, and the competition was fierce, with every entry pushing boundaries in creativity, engineering, and execution. This wasn’t just a show—it was a proving ground where only the most exceptional rides could shine.
The Street Rod Nationals returned to Louisville once again, marking its 31st year at the Kentucky Exposition Center—and its 56th overall. Four days filled with some of the best street rods, customs, and classics brought together everything from survivor sedans to full-tilt customs. With over 10,000 cars on the property and close to 70,000 people wandering the grounds, it’s not just a car show—it’s a rolling history lesson, a swap meet, a family reunion, and a street rodder pilgrimage all rolled into one.
