On behalf of the show committee we would like to welcome you to the Hotrod & Custom Auto Expo. The cars on display represent thousands of hours and hundreds and thousands of dollars spent by dedicated car enthusiasts. They also represent the owner's ideas of how a particular style of car could be built. The cars on display this weekend will be as safe, if not safer than a current mass produced car driven on our streets today, the reason being is that these custom cars are required to comply with the same design rules as any other registered vehicle. These design rules make it hard for builders to comply, but every car builder includes the necessary modifications to his car to pass the stringent safety rules set by the RMS.
