'71 Oldsmobile 442 Convertible
Posted on March 7, 2018

  Words: Tommy Parry Joe’s Oldsmobile has an impressive sheen of green, but perhaps more intriguing is the powerplant. The 442, bored out to a 468, uses Edelbrock heads, custom dished Diamond pistons, 7″ Scat steel rods from Rocket Racing, studs, main straps and oil restrictors. That’s not the half of it. Also included is… Continue reading '71 Oldsmobile 442 Convertible

Crazy Corvette L-88 Replica Build
Posted on February 28, 2018

  Words: Tommy Parry It was a Herculean task he was taking on, but fortunately, Kevin could pick up a clean donor for this ambitious build. The ‘71 small-block coupe only had 80,000 on the clock when Kevin purchased it from his neighbor. As it was a rust-free, no-hit survivor car, he had a perfect… Continue reading Crazy Corvette L-88 Replica Build

Ben's Wild "Pumkinator"
Posted on February 26, 2018

  Words: Tommy Parry Ben’s Pumkinator began life as a garden-variety 1979 Olds Cutlass Cruiser station wagon. For the first five years he owned it, it served as his business hauler, but when the time for a major overhaulin’ came along, the Cutlass went under the budget rebuild knife and came out of the operation… Continue reading Ben's Wild "Pumkinator"

CJ Carlile's “Miss Taboo” 1956 Chevy Custom
Posted on February 22, 2018

  Words: Chadly Johnson We’ve all heard the expression that a cat has nine lives. I feel the same way about stories of old customs that have been extensively modified time and time again over the years, reemerging each time as altered versions of their former selves. I often wonder how much of the original… Continue reading CJ Carlile's “Miss Taboo” 1956 Chevy Custom

Al Tschida teamed up with Fuehr and Farsund to build this Willys in late 1965. Parts from Al’s Nationals-winning Willys from 1964 were used in the… Continue reading The Triad Willys

Grocery Getter Chevrolet
Posted on February 21, 2018

  Words: John “Gunner” Gunnell According to Don Schultz of La Crescent, Minn., there used to be three 1937 Chevy sedan deliveries in his hometown of La Crosse, Wis. Which is odd, since only 7,000 of the trucks were ever built. “A lot of grocery stores had them,” said Schultz. “So we used to call… Continue reading Grocery Getter Chevrolet
