The Outlaw – Ed Roth’s Radical Custom Roadster

January 1, 2024

Two months ago, we featured the late Andy Brizio’s wild T-Bucket that won America’s Most Beautiful Roadster in 1970. The article also mentioned two other notable T-buckets, those crafted by actor/racer Tommy Ivo and hot rodding’s premier funny man, Norm Grabowski. At the same time, wild

Bruce Meyer – Keeper of the Flame

November 27, 2023

Bruce Meyer never built a hot rod. Never assembled a Flathead. Never painted flames or pulled a pinstripe. Yet, when the history of hot rodding in the late 20th and early 21st centuries is written, Meyer’s contribution will long be remembered – for few people

Andy Granatelli – Mr. 500 and Oil Additive Maestro

September 2, 2023

There was a time in the late 1960s when a logo for an unassuming engine oil additive was as ubiquitous as the corporate marks of Coke, IBM, and McDonalds. You could find it everywhere. On dog-eared Pee Chee folders of car-keen teens. On windows of

Jake’s ’34 Coupe – Breaking the Mold

July 12, 2023

Jim “Jake” Jacobs has never been one to follow the crowd. Perhaps it was his time working with Ed Roth, arguably hot rodding's greatest iconoclast, that instilled in Jake the fixation to zig when others zag. One of our hobby’s most influential players – he’s the

“Kong” Jackson – The King of Early Flathead Ignitions

July 3, 2023

Tank Tale – The Iconic Alex Xydias So-Cal Speed Shop Lakester

May 17, 2023

Fat Jack Robinson – Making Fat-Fendered Hot Rods Great

April 6, 2023

Any sobriquet that includes the word “fat” would be, in polite company, considered less than complimentary. But the late hot rodder Jack Robinson wore the moniker of "Fat Jack" proudly, for the descriptor wasn’t aimed at Robinson's physique but, rather, at his talent at building

Duffy’s Eliminator – Model T Road Race Giant Killer

March 21, 2023

February 14, 2023

For this month’s Legends column, our editors aimed our way-back machine to the early days of the 20th Century, a time when automobiles — and motor racing — were in their infancy. A time when a high-school dropout from a small Midwestern town would go
