We had our camera in hand and shot nearly 200 photos of the show. It’s show season all across North America, but there’s still something just a little extra cool about a great show in Southern California, the crucible of hot rodding.

1931 Plymouth Rumbleseat Coupe
“I bought it from a guy that was basically a distributor for Citgo here,” he said. “And he had bought it from the family that originally had it over in Arena, Wisconsin. And he was going to sell it to a guy, out in Nebraska I think, who was gonna street-rod it, and I couldn’t stand to have somebody do that to it. I saved it from the street-rodders. I just couldn’t see it going for that.”
