Boy do I love being a Speedhunter. Where else can I be writing about American LeMans series one moment, and writing about a '57 Chevy from hell the next moment. I spotted this beast at Viva Las Vegas earlier this month, and just knew it deserved a spotlight here. The '57 Chevy is known as one the quintessential American classics, and is a favorite
I might be just a little biased in favor of the new Chevrolet Camaro. After all, it's the car that won me a hundred bucks. No, I didn't win an outlaw street race. In fact I won the money long before my week-long test drive of the 2010 Camaro SS. I actually won the money from a bet with my dad. After being teased with the concept version of the
If you've been reading any of the custom car and hot rod show coverage we've posted this year, then you know just how big pickup trucks have become in this scene. Typically pickups can be bought for cheaper than a similar year car, and when done right they can be just as impressive as any traditional coupe or sedan. Case in point - this wild
Yesterday we took a look at a custom '67 Camaro from Japan, and now it's time to look at another SEMA Camaro of slightly different type - the Grunewald Racing drift Camaro. It was only a matter of time before someone took to drifting the big Chevy, and Conrad Grunewald will be doing just that next year in Formula Drift. The car was built by
After reading John Leigh's blog earlier today about his Top Secret-built Infiniti, I figured I'd follow up with a similar story, yet in reverse. While John was able to have his JDM tuner car displayed at Tokyo Auto Salon, Akira Yamamoto of Kyoto, Japan had his prized '67 Camaro displayed last week at the SEMA Show. There's been tons
If you've noticed my lack of activity over the past couple days, that's because I've been busy relocating to my new place in beautiful Southern California. Now that I've got my office sort of set up, it's time to catch up on a few days of Speedhunting. One of the big stories this week has been the news that Conrad Grunewald will
Even if you aren't into muscle cars, chances are you're familiar with the '69 Camaro. It's one of the most popular American cars of all time - right up there with legends the '55 Chevy and the '32 Ford. The machine you are looking at here is the famous "Big Red" Camaro - a car that many people have called the greatest
Outside of the occasional Nissan Sunny truck or Silvia conversion, you don't see too many pickups here on Speedhunters. There's a good reason for that, as trucks usually fall a bit outside of our focus. However, a good number of the vehicles at the 2009 Cruisin' Nationals were pickup trucks, and to overlook them would be to ignore an important
With the endless stream of gloomy news and drama coming from Detroit these days, it can be hard to find something out there to get excited about. The timing might not be ideal, but with a redesigned Mustang, the new Camaro, and the Dodge Challenger on the market, you can almost forget about bailouts and credit crunches and pretend that it's 1970
I don't think there is race series that Manabu "Max" Orido hasn't tried his hand at. The latest addition to his resume is driving a factory-backed Chevrolet Lacetti in the FIA World Touring Car Championship. In stock form the Daewoo-based Lacetti is not high on the the "desired" cars list and in fact it is currently used
