June 1, 2019…The Wheels of Time Street Rod Association announces its
41st Annual Rod & Custom Jamboree at Macungie Memorial Park on

The Wheels of Time Rod & Custom Jamboree includes over 1,500 street
rods and custom cars, 1989 or older. Preregistration for cars is open until
July 15, 2019 and spaces are available. Car Registration is also available at
the show; however, participant does not receive any merchandise like the
preregistered cars. See our website for registration forms and details. Each
vehicle is an individual creation representing American innovation and
creativity and is a unique expression of performance and style by its owner.
Coveted Wheels of Time awards are given each year to 20 participants’ cars
at the show. National Street Rod Association Vehicle Safety Inspections are
also conducted free of charge during the show.
The street rod and custom car hobby is a unique part of American culture
and draws millions of participants and spectators to events all across the
country. The Wheels of Time Rod & Custom Jamboree is one of the largest
all-volunteer events in the nation and each year approximately 20,000
spectators and participants attend the show. Over the past 20 years an
average of $60,000 is given each year to local charities and the Wheels of
Time scholarship program for young adults. To date, over $1,300,000 has
been donated to local community organizations, over 300 scholarships have
been awarded, and hundreds of pints of blood have been given to the Miller-
Keystone Blood Center. The blood mobile will be on site on Sunday for
donations. Wheels of Time members have also provided countless hours of
community support with cars for parades and events, volunteer hours at fire
company, and support for those in need.
Other show highlights include Valve Cover Racing, our famous Teeter
Totter, Bingo, Auction to benefit MDA, Women’s World, and entertainment
for the kids. The huge flea market and women’s crafts area has 250 vendors,
plus a car corral with dozens of cars for sale. The beautiful Macungie Park
offers many good food vendors, swimming pool, and a playground for the
kids.
The annual Friday night cruise through Emmaus will again go on for the first
200 show cars that sign up on Friday at the show. This has been a long time
