WALLINGFORD, CT – Overnight rain that gave way to morning sprinkles no doubt hurt attendance at the Connecticut Street Rod Association’s Spring Dust-Off on Sunday but there was still a nice variety of both colorful and subdued hot rods.

Seeing so many of them together provided a reminder of the imaginations and creativity of their owners whether through bold color schemes or small details. RIDE-CT made some new friends and snapped some photos:
