Anatomy of the
Hot Rod (http://www.thedieselpage.com/features/hotrodbook.htm)

Book Review


Doug Mitchel's new 11" x 11" book, "Anatomy of the Hot Rod", doesn't contain any diesel equipped subjects, but it does feature more than 400 superb photos of nearly 40 different Hot Rods and custom pickups, roadsters, coupes, convertibles and sedans. We can all appreciate fine work, style and performance. This is a book for the enthusiast.

Lastest rendition of the work in progress - black primer with quickie flames right out of the gun, no taping or masking. Von Buzz also channeled some 60's energy with some nice pinstriping.

Thanks, Jim.

At 1800# and 340hp, its fairly quick. I found out this weekend why you NEVER want to drop the hammer unless pointed in a straight line...

No flames yet...

My version of a hotrod, yes, it's diesel and the "whistle" is too awesome!

'82 SWB 6.2/6.5L

Mark,

Will we be seeing this coupe at the Frog Follies in Evansville, IN ?

We welcome all kinds of Hot Rods. I lean a little to the Rat Rod era myself...

Is that truck legal?

Well if you don't get caught.:D

Nope, truck isn't legal. The law just states that all exhaust has to exit just past the passenger compartment.

Other than that, the truck is street legal.

But, it does get street raced on occasion, until the fuzz arrives.

Nice rod, Mark - set of small '80's Lincoln rear disk\parking brakes would bolt right on that Ford housing - as would a 351 Cleveland\C6 :eek:
