Several times each year, we are blessed to have the opportunity to take part in different industry events. But, only once a year does the king of auto shows take place. We’re going to Vegas, from November 1st – 4th. Shop Tool Reviews (STR) will be at the 2016 SEMA Show, reporting on what’s new in tools and the automotive aftermarket. We’ll bring you the news throughout each day.  Be sure to stay tuned to STR social media, so you are the first to know.

2016 SEMA Show Coverage

We will be at SEMA each and every day, and our coverage will be loaded with content. From pictures to videos and articles, we are sure to be non-stop all week. The excitement gains momentum each day as November 1st draws near. We may even stream some live video, while onsite to keep things interesting. There is no telling what we might see while at the show.

Battle of the Builders

Who will reign supreme this year at the 2016 SEMA show Battle of the Builders? This will include more than 200 builders and customizers, which include over 260 custom cars. Bobby Alloway took home the honors last year with his 1933 Ford Roadster, drenched in flames. We’ll see if he can repeat this year. The Ring Brothers will try their hand with a 1948 Cadillac built over a new Cadillac ATS-V, at the same time keeping all the amenities of the new Caddy. Most noteworthy, Chip Foose will be in the mix with his already hyped up 1939 Cadillac, dubbed Madam X.

Reader Requests for SEMA 2016

Let us know on social media if you have any requests for information, pictures, or even interviews. Do you have a favorite builder, or interested in a company’s latest release? Are there specific tools that you want covered? Is there a certain car/truck you want a shot of? We guarantee to please, or at least we’ll try to. STR will be your feet on the ground, hence you can stay up to date while you work.

Our anticipation is a bit overwhelming at the moment, or at least my anticipation is. I’m the big gearhead of the bunch, so it’s easy for me to get excited. We will be sure to keep the STR social media a buzz all week during SEMA. Be sure to like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter and Instagram. We look forward to the show and to your feedback.
