Vern Tardel needs no introduction. He is mister flathead, his ranch is the mekka for any traditional Ford hot rod follower and in spite of all that glory, he takes the time for you and your flathead ...
Bereits auf dem ersten Abschnitt unserer Reise konnten wir einen herrlichen "Autosupermarkt" ausfindig machen.
Ich muß mal vorankommen mit der Lackierung. Also noch zu Ende geschliffen, mit Silikonentferner gereinigt und dann gib ihm! Hammerschlag zu rollen is nich einfach, perfekt wird das nie, das habe ich ...
Am 1. Juni starteten wir unsere Sommerreise 2011. In diesem Jahr steht der nördliche Westen der USA bis einschliesslich Kanada auf dem Programm. Ausgangspunkt der Tour war Seattle/WA. Von Vancouver g...

It’s an odd question I know, but as an automotive enthusiast it’s one that you should already know the answer to. Simply asking you to choose a real automotive hero would be too easy, especially sinc...
After years of washing, waxing and turning wrenches on cars and bikes, I’ve got a good feel for what works and what doesn’t. The latest “miracle glaze” polish usually doesn’t look as good or last as ...

Not long ago I reviewed the 2011 BMW 1-Series M Coupe at Monticello Motor Club in upstate New York. It was not only compact, powerful and an absolute pisser to drive at the limit, but it hearkens bac...
