SEATTLE ROADSTER SHOW

FEBRUARY 29 – MARCH 2, 2008
SEATTLE ROADSTER SHOW
Qwest Field Event Center
800 Occidental Ave., Seattle, Washington, 98134

The Seattle Roadster Show took the Emerald City by surprise with record crowds. Each year more than 35,000 spectators and consumers flock to the Emerald City to see the best that the West Coast and Canada have to offer in this last stop on the West Coast Tour. This year launches the Grand Touring “GT” Award for street machines. Chip Foose, the renowned hot rod shop owner, automotive designer and fabricator, and star of Overhaulin' on TLC calls this his “favorite indoor car show.”

From the North and South
I-5 and the Alaskan Way Viaduct both have exits near Qwest Field & Qwest Field Event Center. From I-5 there are exits at James Street, 4th Avenue, and Airport Way that will all place visitors in close proximity to the facility.

From the East
Qwest Field & Qwest Field Event Center can be reached by both I-90 and SR 520 from the east. From I-90, follow the signs to Fourth Avenue South and turn right. Turn right onto South Royal Brougham Way. From SR 520, take I-5 South, then take either the James Street, 4th Avenue, or Airport Way exits to place you in proximity to the facility.

MANTIS: Seattle in February? Thank goodness the Home of the Seahawks features expansive covered concourses with ample restrooms – the sound of rain always makes us want to take a comfort break. Shown is Mantis Rodz founder Kevin Brown and his dad with their silver ‘55 Chevy 150.
