Basically everything you can imagine having to do with a car is here – from new concept cars on down to aftermarket parts [...]
Motorbooks has come out with a new book about the racing life of Paul Newman. It was written by Matt Stone and Preston Lerner with a Foreword by none other than Mario Andretti himself, a personal friend of PLN (Paul Newman). Where do I start? Can’t say I’ve seen Paul Newman’s many movies that made [...]
I took a couple hundred pics at World Finals at the Bonneville Salt Flats a few weeks back. I thought I should start sharing some of my favorites.
This 1955 Chevy Bel Air Post built by Hot Rods by Dean was absolutely gorgeous. I don’t know squat about the car. It runs in the B/CGC (B [...]
All right then, I’m a wagon freak. You could even say I’m a Ford Falcon wagon freak. I’ve written before about the problems I have (Extra W Chromosome) and the 63 Falcon wagon project I’m re-doing. I’ve learned to live with those issues and I’m doing my best in the hot rod society. But then [...]
It’s easy to like iconic muscle cars like a Mustang, especially when it’s a true Shelby. Add to that it’s an original Hertz Shelby and I’m a little more curious. Without much effort, I can see a young man strolling up the Hertz counter (long before internet reservations!) and asking for a 1966 Mustang GT [...]
Part 2 of Hot Rod Ramblings “Car of the Week”, we take a look at some rear wheel drive beauties from all around the world, Japanese, European and even American.

Andy from Andy’s Pinstriping gives us 5 Steps for painting Vintage Door Art on Shop Trucks
1. The first thing I like to do is use some wax and grease remover and clean the panel to be painted. This simple step is honestly one of the most critical and most often overlooked steps in any paint [...]

Once I’d decided to start gettin’ my hands greasy – the first thing I went for was the tire. It couldn’t be too hard to take a tire on and off, right? Right! Changing a tire is as easy as 1-2-3!
1. Gather all your tools and jack your car up.
Most modern cars come with a [...]
So far, MyRideisMe.com has resisted the occasional urge to say anything negative about anyone else’s ride. After all, to each his own and all that. But, in the words of Clint Eastwood, “A man’s got to know his limitations.” And I hit mine at the 2009 Cruisin for a Cure show in Orange County with [...]
One thing I liked (and some might hate) about the Crusin for a Cure car show in Orange County, California is the wide variety of cars filling Costa Mesa’s OC Fair and Events center. Seems like most of the big shows I’ve been to are restricted to a certain year or type of car. Not [...]
