Bonnie Honea is a hot rodder in Southern Oregon who works as a bookkeeper and property manager, picks up her two kids from school, and goes grocery shopping—all in the cool '37 Plymouth rat truck that she designed, helped build, and uses as her daily driver.
She's the real thing: a bright, contemporary woman who loves hot rods and isn't afraid of a little bit of grease.
