Las Vegas, Nevada – Just like Batman movie reboots and Kiss farewell tours, our SEMA Photo Galleries never truly end. So even now as the afterglow of the 2024 SEMA Show begins to fade, we’re still emptying out our memory cards and finding incredible shots of vintage cruisers, lifted 4x4s, and big-buck exotics.
Here’s a close up of the amazing engine detail on the Impala in the marquee photo. Do yourself a favor and click the image to zoom in. *Chef’s Kiss* (Image/OnAllCylinders)We posted a photo of this DeLorean earlier, but unless you looked closely, you might’ve missed the 4.3L Ferrari V8 (!!!) stuffed in the back. (Image/OnAllCylinders)With his iconic Blowfish Barracuda land speed racer at their booth, the folks at Mother’s Polish had a touching tribute to hotrodder George Poteet, who passed away earlier this year. (Image/OnAllCylinders)We’re getting serious Sega Rally Championship vibes here, thanks to the Castrol-inspired throwback paint job on this rally-prepped Toyota GR86. See what other color schemes made the list of Our Top 10 Favorite Race Liveries. (Image/OnAllCylinders)If old school Toyotas are your jam, its team brought a bunch of retro-themed rides to the show. This hubcap-equipped Land Cruiser was one of our faves, as was the pop-top 4Runner “Surf” concept. (Image/OnAllCylinders)Don’t rub your eyes—this is a Barracuda conversion done on a late model Challenger LA platform. And believe it or not, there was more than one of these awesome retrofits at the event. (Image/OnAllCylinders)And if the Challenger/’Cuda conversion isn’t your thing, check out the 70/SS. It’s a Chevelle-inspired muscle car built on a late model Camaro platform. (Image/OnAllCylinders)The experts at Superformance brought a fleet of rides to the show, and we were particularly enamored with this Grand Sport replica. (Image/OnAllCylinders)Speaking of Grand Sports, we spotted this C6 out in the parking lot. (Image/OnAllCylinders)Corvette fan? We’d be remiss if we didn’t mention Peter Brock’s stunning 2025 Studio Concept. Get the full scoop on this car here. (Image/OnAllCylinders)If you can’t identify this converted drag car, it’s made from a super rare Opel Manta—one of our favorite cars named after fish. (Image/OnAllCylinders)Buick purists look away! This is a twin-turbo, LS7-swapped Grand National. But don’t worry, if you prefer the 3.8L V6, RingBrothers had you covered in a nearby booth. (Image/OnAllCylinders)Even though they were available in the States for a short time, Evos are becoming increasingly rare over here, especially in coupe… (Image/OnAllCylinders)…or wagon flavor. (Image/OnAllCylinders)Stand aside G-bodies, behold the O.G. Pontiac 2+2. (Image/OnAllCylinders)Obligatory.(Image/OnAllCylinders)Want to take a guess at what’s under the hood of this Celica? Hint: Look at the plate. (Image/OnAllCylinders)We’re seeing more and more Gen. III Hemi swaps all over the place. (Image/OnAllCylinders)…Of course, you can still get your Mopar in the Original Recipe. (Image/OnAllCylinders)Our pals at Hemmings made sure the beaches were safe during the event. (Image/OnAllCylinders)In addition to a sharp-looking Veloster, we saw a handful of N-spec Hyundais around the Las Vegas Convention Center too. (Image/OnAllCylinders)Fire-engine red paint job and massive wheels aside, this twin-turbo Le Mans was pretty subtle with its hood down. (Image/OnAllCylinders)At the Rockford Fosgate booth, we spotted a “King of the Baggers” Harley-Davidson race bike. And yes, they’re even cooler to see in person! (Image/OnAllCylinders)Speaking of bikes, this tidy little Indian four-cylinder was tucked between the show booths too. (Image/OnAllCylinders)Nearby was this amazingly clean Pierce too. (Image/OnAllCylinders)Hey—we know this car! (Image/OnAllCylinders)Check out the bed—this rowdy El Camino was appropriately parked in the Mickey Thompson booth. (Image/OnAllCylinders)Is the infamous horse collar grille growing on us? Why yes, yes it is. (Image/OnAllCylinders)And finally, though it wasn’t at the 2024 SEMA Show, our friends with the vintage Pancho Gonzales fuel dragster were at the NHRA Nevada Nationals happening nearby at The Strip the same weekend. You can learn more about this amazing period-correct build here. (Image/Greg Gonzalez)
