HIGHLIGHTS OF THE WEEK |

We hope everyone got out last weekend to do something for Collector Car Appreciation day (and weekend). If you did, be sure to send us the photos or the story to [email protected] so we can share it with your fellow readers. Want a chance to meet us in person? We'll be at the 15th Annual Syracuse Nationals this weekend - at Booth #310 and in Gasoline Alley as a sponsor of Artie's Party! Come say hi! It's one of our favorite events of the year! This week we bring you the Featured Car Show from Cosmic Charlie, a stolen vehicle we hope you can help recover, the Goodguys Tribute winner, a favorite column of ours from Tex Smith's archive and of course the best in hot rod car shows and classifieds. We hope to share the shows you're attending, ooh and aah over your Rodder's Row ride, or get a glimpse at your garage! So send us your photos and story suggestsions. If you've got questions about restoring or building your hot rod, don't forget that you can email [email protected] with the subject "Rodder's Forum" and we'll post the questions to the hot rod community. There's a wealth of knowledge out there; you just have to ask! Keep on roddin'! - The staff at Hot Rod Hotline |
