A Ford tractor radiator cap would look great, but it's radiator cap. I'd look for a vintage motorcycle cap. A simple painted one would be cool,...
That's a cool car. I especially like that the roll bar looks like it was designed more to protect the Weber carburetors than the driver's head....
I like the front and the rear wheel openings, but not the mismatch. Also, is that really a 63? Did they take out the split window?
Live axle Corvettes are the most hot rod production cars ever. Lightweight roadster body, obsolete chassis and the best motor you can find. That...
I remember trying to build a 1/24 scale version of that from an AMT model kit of a Falcon Ranchero when I was a kid. It was an abject failure. A...
I like the 12 cylinder distributor. It's like an old school dirt track hack on what otherwise looks like a total high buck Yuro car.
When I lived in Brooklyn in the 60s there was a serious street racing scene on Connecting Highway and Cross Bay Boulevard. It might still be going...
In 1970 I had a chance to buy Corvete no. 46 for $150. It was in tough shape but I had a rusty 1958 Biscayne with a strong 283 that it could have...
The guy who designed the 49 Buick taillights could have come up with something better than the 53 Corvette lights. Maybe 1953 was when Harley...

I want to like it but it's too nice for a TROG car so I'm sort of in the middle on it. I think I would have liked it better if he had started with...
In no particualr order: 63 Riviera (I like the rear bumper and taillights, and the round headlights in the square grill) 63 Avanti (I really like...
That checks all the hot rod boxes for me. Straight axle chassis, souped up flat head and a lightwehgt body mounted in a way its original designer...
I saw both those cars in a museum 30 years ago. I was impressed with how crude LeMonstre looked and how ridiculous a Coupe DeVille in racing...
