small town chevys

I ran across these two classic Chevys by pure coincidence. And that's one of the things I love about California. The birthplace of car culture. Picture taken in May 2011.

The annual a-bombers old style weekend in Sweden is one of the best and oldest traditional hot rod and custom events in Europe. And the number and attitude of cars never ceases to amaze me. Check out Mr. Alcén's photos.

We all know those car show pics. But luckily, there are other ways of capturing a car show. UK based photographer Nick Grant is a master at finding that different angle, that view beyond the obvious. It seems like each of his pictures wants to tell a short story. See what he saw at the latest Hot Rod Hayride in the UK.

The first movie on Fuel Tank TV is online: Factory 6: Craig Metros. "Craig Metros is a Detroit born car designer, artist and hot rod builder and talks to us about moving from Detroit to Melbourne, what inspires him, and what it's like to build a hot rod that has fulfilled a childhood dream." Check it out and have a nice weekend!
