If you are like us and are always interested in finding out what goes on behind the scenes at a shop, or during a car build, then this new series from John McGann and the gang at Hot Rod is going to be one you want to watch. I love shop tours, and getting to see something go together rather than just seeing it finished. Finished is awesome, but how did it get there is even more interesting.
Check out this video as McGann goes behind the scenes at Hollywood Hot Rods and let us know what you think. Troy Ladd, the owner of Hollywood Hot Rods, is one of those guys that you just want to be around. He’s smart, fun, and as passionate as any hot rodder you’ll ever find. He and his crew have built some amazingly crafted hot rods, customs, and more over the years and at every level. Winning the Grand National Roadster Show’s America’s Most Beautiful Roadster is no easy task and he’s done it. His builds have won plenty of other awards as well, but it’s not just about sitting there and looking pretty. His cars are drivable, fun to look at, and well thought out. We dig them.
