Hot rod show returns to St. Paul RiverCentre

A lot of vroom and zoom will be on display at St. Paul RiverCentre this weekend.

The 48th annual O'Reilly Auto Parts World of Wheels runs from Friday through Sunday.

More than 300 hot rods, national touring cars, race cars and custom motorcycles will fill all three floors of RiverCentre.

The show also features more than 30 local car club exhibits.

Many of the cars on display will be judged through the weekend by judges accredited by the International Show Car Association. Local cars will be up for awards in both the "Minnesota's Finest" and "Minnesota's Top 10" categories.

The show is part of the Summit Racing Show Car Series.
