I had the opportunity to visit Stephen Van Blarcom or Street Rod Steve, as his friends know him, at his shop to check out some of his Toys. I was amazed to see his collection and hear his stories about his 1929 roadster that set a World Land Speed record in 2009 out in Bonneville. The new World record is 216.979 MPH and that feat got him inducted into the infamous 200 MPH club…
SRS loves either restoring a car, or building one from scratch. He has Street Rods, Muscle Cars, Classics and even bikes. He mostly enjoys building them, rebuilding them, and maintaining them.
Thanks Steve for a great time and letting me check out your rides… Check out HRS collection @ www.streetrodsteve.com
