Story by Lenie Hamm Like so many of you I grew up in the era of muscle and have always had an interest in cars. When I turned 16 my first car was a 1964 GTO that I absolutely loved but like everyone else I sold it for one reason or another and moved on. As time went by there were other priorities in life that were far more important than my desire of old cars but I’ve always … [Read more...]
June ’14 Feature of the Month: Greg Heinrichs 70 Chevelle by Ironworks
Built by Ironworks Speed and Kustom Story from Popular Hot Rodding Lock your doors. A lynch mob of angry purists is about to descend on Las Vegas. That's where you'll find a real '70 SS 454 Chevelle that's been stripped of its LS6 big-block for a Gen IV LSA small-block.

May ’14 Feature of the Month: Phil Mitchells 67 Nova by Chris Holstrom Concepts
Story by Chris Holstrom Phil had commissioned me to build a few other pro-touring cars that turned out awesome. You could say we had really similar tastes which makes building a car much more enjoyable. Phil wanted to do a '66-67 Nova hardtop with LS power and the latest suspension goodies. What Chevy lover doesn't like the classic lines of the mid year GM compact? I began … [Read more...]
April ’14 Feature of the Month: V8 Speed & Resto’s 71 Olds Cutlass
The original owner wanted a 442, but the price tag on a 442 was a little out of reach, so this 1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass S was ordered new with every 442 option except for the 455 Olds engine. It's got the bucket seats, 4-speed, Outside Air Induction fiberglass hood, sway bars, disc brakes... and a 350 4-barrel. It's an interesting car, and here's where the journey back to … [Read more...]
March ’14 Feature of the Month: V8 Speed & Resto’s “Reloaded”
1968 Camaro "RELOADED" Words by Kevin Oeste, pics by Kevin Oeste & Mark Vironda Built by V8 Speed & Resto Shop, Red Bud, IL I was in high school when I met Pete Kurpiewski, a guy a few years older than I who claimed to have a California-bought '68 Camaro SS in his garage.

Raj Mundi’s 69 Camaro
I have had an infatuation (some might call it an addiction/problem) with cars from an early age. The car that started the problem was my cousins 1987 Buick Grand National. Once he lowered it and added some Centerlines that was it, I was hooked! I have always wanted to build a car that was "mine" and I got that chance a few years ago. Much like a few others on the forum, this … [Read more...]
Scott Careys 64 Chevelle
Owner/Builder: Scott Carey When I bought the car I was looking for an all original car. This was as close as I could find; two owners and one repaint. My plans were to just leave it and drive it as is while I was building my other car. But as plans often change, one day I thought I would just do a motor swap... well the rest is history. … [Read more...]
