Unfortunately for the French, their cars never seemed to catch on in North America. Chrysler dealers made a bleak attempt to sell Peugot back in the ’80s that had the long-term success as parachute pants, but even Yugo had a bigger presence during their brief stint on this side of the pond. That’s why it’s [...]
Everyone knows the Viper is a brute force in the car world, a billet-machined piece of brute force, carved from a single mound of recycled Whoop-Ass cans. Somehow, Peter Ginakes’ 2009 Viper convertible manages to hide its true intentions from the world under that classy layer of silver paint. Of course, we all know what [...]
Those crazy PT Cruiser folks seem to have a thing with displaying toys and collectables all over their cars at car shows. Say all the mean things you want about a car full of Betty Boop, but this guy’s still taking home the “Kid’s Choice” trophy.

Hockey [...]
According to this month’s issue of Hot Rod Deluxe magazine, old engines are making a comeback. Gone are the days when everyone automatically dropped in a small block Chevy with the $50 chrome valve covers from Canadian Tire. Today, lots of hot rodders are going with the original engines, or even swapping in some of [...]
Big convertibles are always cool, even if they’re Fords. This red ’58 was taking in the sunshine at the annual “Cruisin Gimli Beach” car show.
1948 would be the last year for the “Stylemaster” series of passenger cars from Chevrolet-which was really a re-named re-production of the 1941 Deluxe Master series, whose production was interrupted when those pesky Nazis got all uppity, and we had to go tear them a new one. After the war, the general public would buy [...]
I received an email yesterday from Kevin Dill, a friend of mine who is also a fan and client of SundayCruiseFever.com. Last year, we spent time shooting his ’87 Porsche 928 “Polizei” edition.
