Handyman’s Corner alone isn’t all the automotive joy to be had with the show, either.

The show was very much a celebration of the V8's, bass fishing, and cold beers culture of the Northern Rural male with a genial attitude rather than the “us vs them” approach of the more common Southern Rural comedians of the time…

The Pontiac Banshee concept duo of 1964. Imagine it for a moment, a world in which General Motors had successfully held the British at bay with their own small light affordable sports car, one sold with up-to-date engineering, consistent build quality, and a perky OHC straight six that made it into an E-Type on a…

If you don’t mind my saying so, the article does a fair job pointing out that Day has had a fair bit of trouble seeking sponsorship within his community alongside of more traditionally “NASCAR” companies.

That was my most exciting thing about the article, too. Screw the Super Beetle. WORLD’S FASTEST SEAPLANE!

My personal favorite over the years is held at the Dunkin' Donuts Center in Rhode Island. Many modified, supermodified, and…

Kyle Larson has been making people coast to coast learn his name as one of open wheels biggest new talents. Really hoping that in a post-Bernard Indycar world he's still considered for an Indy Lights ride NOW.

More than likely that's either a Riley & Scott or a Derhaag chassis from the glory days of Scott Sharp, Jack Baldwin, and Ron Fellows hammering it out with Dorsey Schroeder and Tommy Kendall.
