HIGHLIGHTS OF THE WEEK |
||||||
We're taking this show on the road! Just as car show seasons is well underway for readers, so too is it for us! We're going on the 2014 Hot Rod Power Tour! If you're going to be on the tour, or at any of the stops, please come see us! We'll be flying the Motorhead Media banner, so come up and say hi! When we get back from that whirlwind, it's off to Back to the 50s in St. Paul! This week we say a sad goodbye to Speedway Motors founder Bill "Speedy" Smith. Our thoughts are with his friends and family. We've got thoughts on trucks from Tex Smith, a review by Hot Rod M.D. Jim Clark of the Hot Rod Gallery book that we're giving to our favorite "one that got away" contributor, and of course updates on car shows, barn finds, events and shows! | ||||||
