Spring fever

It’s hard to make a trip to the Minnesota State Fairgrounds without thinking of summer, especially when V8s are rumbling around the perimeter and the smell of mini doughnuts is wafting from Warner Coliseum’s doors.

It was no Back to the ’50s, to be sure, but the Gopher State Timing Association’s 53rd annual Rod & Custom Spectacular held March 28-29 offered a great taste of what’s to come as the weather warms up (I’m talking about the cars here, though the mini doughnuts were good, too).

More than 100 customs, hot rods, street machines and other vehicles crammed into the coliseum over the weekend. Check out the photos for some of the show’s highlights.

It won’t be long before the fairgrounds starts hosting outdoor shows again. Spring has arrived!
