The West Coast Kustoms Cruisin’ Nationals Car Show formed in 1982 for “kustom people, by kustom people.” The event is a chance for people to remember how times were in the nifty fifties, and recall that it was the West Coast that set the trends and led the way in kustomizing their cars. The event is an opportunity to bring back those great memories and honor the many big kustomizers still active on the West Coast. It is a chance to get the kustom out of the garage, load up the family and join in on the fun and good times.

The Santa Maria Valley is an ideal destination for road-trippers and visitors alike. Tour the welcoming vineyards and swirl your glass ‘til you spill. Indulge in the 150-year old Santa Maria-style barbecue tradition that is the area’s best hidden gem. Watch the sunset over the dunes, and let your hair fly around in the ocean breeze. The Travel Channel named the Santa Maria Valley The New Top 10 Cities for Wine Snobs.
