Upcoming R.O.D.S. Events
Below is a listing of the upcoming events and gatherings
Our 47th Annual R.O.D.S. Run
The 47th annual R.O.D.S Run was fantastic! It was held March 21-22, 2025 at Gerry Lane Cadillac in Baton Rouge and we had 120 pre-49 street rods on the field from all over the Eastern United States!
A 3 day Rod Run squeezed into Friday and Saturday was the ticket and the catered Friday fish fry (free to participants) by Gerry Lane Chevrolet was delicious.
Promoting pre-1949 Street Rods since 1979. Here is a link to a great video by Southern Rods & Classics:
