Prepare yourself to fall in love with the car featured below. This 1966 Nova station wagon was apparently located in a barn and as best we can tell by the exterior, that sounds accurate. Leaving the outside untouched as well as the interior (note condition of the bench seat when the front door is opened [...]
You all know and love the ice monster Camaro from Sweden. Jobergg always posts cool videos of the gnarly crumpled racer chewing up ice courses, flying through the woods, burning tires to the cords, or performing other tasks that tickle our BangShifty fancy. This time, the hard worn Camaro is pitching sideways on asphalt and [...]
Holy testicle Tuesday is this wild! We were tipped off to this video by our pal Martin and for good reason as this is 100% wild ass BangShifty carnage! In the video you will see a Shelby GT500 Mustang on a small portable chassis dyno. We have no idea if the car was stock, modified, [...]
Kris Henderson is one of the coolest guys we know and his 200+ capable 1959 Jaguar, powered by one of the most pissed off Chevy rat motors we’ve ever heard is one of the coolest cars we know. Kris of course runs it at standing mile events, he drag races it, and he has taken [...]
Dennis McCarthy, Picture Car Builder extraordinaire, has got one cool job. And once again he is enjoying the hell out of it as the Fast & Furious 6 is about to come out in a couple of weeks. Like always, there are some twists and turns that you won’t expect, and we’re not just talking [...]
This kids, is a hot rod. It is also a rolling mechanical orphanage. The motor in the car isn’t made any more. The rear end in the car isn’t made anymore. The components in the rear suspension are from a company that is out of business. The transmission hasn’t been manufactured in years and the [...]
The guys over at Year One have been cranking out gnarly projects for years and their latest, a 1973 Pontiac Trans Am that’s done as a sort of modern pro touring tribute to the car that John Wayne drover in the movie McQ. The car is painted in the 1973-only Brewster green, wears the correct [...]
We’ve been following the adventure of our pal Jason Lewis and his cool Maverick project which he has seen fit to jam full of Viper V10 goodness. The car has been an on going project for some time which began life at his house and moved to a friend’s shop. That friend passed away and [...]
We aren’t making this stuff up. At the SEMA show this year the gang from BS Industries, who have to be good since they chose such a great name, debuted a killer 1969 Mustang that has a Boss 429 engine in it that was originally built to go in Mario Andretti’s 1969 Can Am racer. [...]
BangShifter John Cross sent us this cool video that the guys at Big Muscle put together on his NorCal based 1970 440 6-pack Cuda. Although it is a numbers matching car, John pulled the original 440, Dana 60, and other parts and put them on a shelf in the garage so he could make room [...]
Some guys know and some guys don’t, but back in the early 1960s, Pontiac built a 194ci four cylinder engine and used it in a few of their production models. The engine was literally half of a 389ci V8, using the passenger side cylinder bank and it was designed by none other than Smokey Yunick. [...]
Shop trucks have certainly become their own dedicated genre of the hobby over the last several years. Hell, half of the reason I bought the old C50 wrecker that’s currently in my stable is because of the perfect patina, old school hand lettering, and the history of it being worked by an old school garage [...]
(Photos by Dave Nutting) – Buick fans, it’s time to tell your friends that “Going Fast with Class” is back! After seven days and seven hundred-plus miles behind the wheel of a 2012 Buick Regal GS, I came away both impressed and relieved. I was impressed with the overall quality of the car, the refinement [...]
Well this truck is certainly devious! Guys have been stuffing hot small blocks into short bed half ton trucks for decades but none have been as powerful from the factory as the blown LS9 that normally powers the Corvette ZR1. The fact that this retains every inch of its factory look aside from the side [...]
You may know the name Jason Lewis. He worked for the guys at Hot Rod for a time, doing their video stuff. He’s also the guy behind the bad ass big rig gymkhana video that stormed around the web a while back. Jason is a hardcore gear head with several cars and projects of his [...]
Anyone who has seen a Ring Brothers built hot rod knows they don’t do anything half assed. In fact they have taken themed hot rods and muscle cars to a new level in recent years and continue to push the envelope. One of their latest projects, the BAILOUT 1966 Mustang Fastback, was built with on [...]
