For all our international readers, Victoria Day Weekend, aka “May Two-Four,” is a Canadian celebration to mark the birthday of Queen Victoria. Since my wife is also named Victoria, we usually force her to wear a dollar store tiara and speak in a cheesy British accent all weekend. But for all those Canadians who aren’t [...]
The hemi was king of the mountain when it came to racing applications, but many forget it also powered thousands of mundane family haulers as well. This hunk o’ cast iron badassery was found in a plain-jane beige Chrysler sedan at the annual Beausejour car show, 2009.
It’s been at least two weeks since this online hot rodding publication showed a picture of a Camaro. In order to re-align the planets, here’s a red 1st-generation SS, complete with Cragar drag-star chrome rims.

Everest climber Karon Liu stepped up to the challenge with his rendition of what public transit should look like. Although he’s not a gearhead at heart (just a really funny writer), [...]
Blake Piper added this 409-powered ’31 Ford Model A Coupe to his fleet last summer, and he’s been racking up the miles (and awards) ever since. He even took home the “Best Undercarriage” award from the 2010 World of Wheels, beating out the usual “never driven and never will be” show cars that populate ISCA [...]
I couldn’t decide which video to embed with today’s Daily Roddin’-the cute transformers vid I posted originally, or a road test of the way-out-there Citroen SM.
