HIGHLIGHTS OF THE WEEK |
||||||
We've been busy here at Hot Rod Hotline! We just got back from South Carolina where we got a sneak peak at one of Michelin's new tires and got a chance to test it, and we're going to be at the Hot Rod Restoration show this weekend, and the upcoming Charlotte Auto Fair. All this travel has made us itchy for nice weather and rides on a long road with the top down. We asked before and we'll ask again, where are you hoping to travel this summer, and what vehicle will YOU be taking? Let us know at [email protected]. - The Staff at Hot Rod Hotline |
||||||
|
||||||
This week's featured classified ad is an all-steel 1932 Ford Roadster. It's listed at $68,000 and is located in New River, AZ. This roadster retains its stock styling, but has a ton of upgrades under the Hugger Orange paint. See more cars like this in the classifieds section or on our website! |
