HIGHLIGHTS OF THE WEEK |
||||||
We've finally recovered from our rockin' weekend in Louisville, catching up with old friends and making new ones, plus seeing the over 10,000 cars on display. That means we're gearing up for what's next - the end of the summer run from our fabulous contributors as they enjoy the last few weeks of summers at various shows, rallies, races and runs! Do you have photos to share, a great car you think should be featured, a garage to flaunt, or a product you'd love to know more about? Email us at [email protected] with your photos and stories. This week we bring you an oldie but goody from Tex Smith on running on the salt, in honor of the upcoming Bonneville speed challenges, plus Richard Parks and Roger Rohrdanz toured the newly refurbished Wally Parks Museum in Pomona, and Patrick Klein shares his '66 T-Bird. We saw some great stuff this weekend, and some truly unusual stuff. Let us know what's the most unusual rod you've ever seen! --The Staff at Hotrodhotline.com |
