The Hot Rod Power Tour made its return to Chattanooga, Tennessee this year, having made its first appearance in 2010. The city welcomed the return, and the Power Tour folks were glad to be back, so we photographed the action during the day’s festivities at the official stop, held at Chattanooga State Community College. Cars [...]
BangShifter Newell Ruggles sent us some great photos from Viva Las Vegas 2013, along with his adventure in getting there behind the wheel of the “Black Widow” 1960 Plymouth Valiant with his pal Ramzy. The show was great, the photos are awesome as always, and there is tons for you to see. Tomorrow we’ll have [...]
(Photos by Darryl Daniels) – We’ve been showing you cool photos from the Top Gear Festival in Australia recently and those photos came from Darryl Danies who lives down there. Darryl went on a long road trip with his grandson to get to the event and he did it the BangShifty way, by stopping at [...]
Cole Quinnell and Rob McGaffin are known for their words and photos respectively, but nobody ever said they were the smartest guys. Don’t get us wrong, we are crazy enough to want to road trip with them in the Chevelle all the way to Las Vegas for the SEMA Show and Optima Ultimate Street Car [...]
The Tearle brothers send us an email on Sunday saying that they had been to a super cool cruise in Adelaide, Australia and had photos to share if we were interested. Well of course we were! Especially when John told us that there were 2000+ hot rods cruising from the Bay to Birdwood. And the [...]
We just finished up the first half of the Rodfather Goodguys Road Tour and can’t begin to describe just how bitchin it was. Sure we worked our asses off shooting video and photos and getting all of that stuff up every night, but it was cool. About 80% of the guys on the trip are [...]
As the Goodguys Rodfather road trip heads across the country, Chad is continuing to send us dispatches from the road in both photo and video form. This is a gallery from one of the stops on the tour where Chad was able to cruise the collected hot roddy goodness and snap a bunch of photos. [...]
Day two of the Rodfather Goodguys Road Tour is in the bag, and we had even more fun today! With five more days of road trip ahead of us before reaching Indy, there is sure to plenty more fun, but today we visited Wyotech, got some great on road footage of all the hot rods, [...]

Day one of the Rodfather Goodguys Cruise was super bitchin. Some of the coolest hot rods around are cruising cross country from Bonneville to Indy and we are covering all the action.

We’ve spent the last two days cruising from Pleasanton, California to Wendover, Utah for the start of the Goodguys Rodfather Tour, but today was the official start. And where better to start a road trip full of killer hot rods than at the Bonneville Salt Flats? With over 80 hot rods ready to roll at [...]
The Rodfather Tour left Pleasanton California on Wednesday morning and ended up in Reno, Nevada for the night. We hooked up with a bunch of the gang, including Andy Brizio himself, in the bar where bench racing, storytelling, and laughing were rampant. We got some great interviews with these guys and then hit the motorhome [...]
Andy “The Rodfather” Brizio is one of the icons of all that is hot rodding. And his mantra has always been that trailering them sucks, but driving them is bitchin. This year he told Gary Meadors that he was going for ONE LAST ROADTRIP, and the Rodfather Tour was born. We’re following along from start [...]
Let it be known, Monday was the quickest and fastest Hot Rod Magazine Drag Week competition day in the history of the event, which is now in its eighth running. Three cars crested the two hundred mile per hour barrier on a well prepared and maintained strip at Tulsa Motorsports Park and Larry Larson went 6.94-seconds, [...]
While on a recent road trip through the Carolinas, my mother and father in law happened upon a pretty neat place in the town of Moyock, North Carolina. At first blush it looks to be a classic car junkyard, but in actuality it is Moyock Muscle, a classic car dealer and restoration shop. After getting [...]
