When I saw the Cheese Whiz '55 I was taken way back, loved it then, love it now. That, and B'Ville's '32, and Linda Vaughn...to me were the best-ever! I agree, get a DVD of these legends together and I'll be in line to buy a couple copies!
I graduated from high school in 1986. Started buying car magazines my freshman year. Mostly Hotrod and Car Craft. Around 1988 my Dad told me "for all the money you have wrapped up in Car Magazines you could have a REAL car". Well I took his advice and never bought another car mag again. Bought a 65 442 in 1988 for $500 and drove it home. Restored it myself and finished it in 1991 and still own it.
HEALTH AND FITNESS AND HOT ROD MAGAZINE KEEP ME ON THE STRAIGHT AND NARROW!!! YOU GUYS HELPED ME REBUILD MY LIFE AFTER MY DIVORCE. I AM ETERNALLY GRATEFUL FOR THAT. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Everyone of these older guys were my hero's when I was growing up, and now I'm one of these older guys! And still into Hot Rods. Once it gets under your skin, there's no turning back!
I just turned 25 and probably only know of two of the many cars that were shown during this event. It would be such an amazing video series if you could go through as many of these historic cars as possible; depicting their specifications, personal story, and impact on their era. It would educate those who weren't around to see these great pieces of automotive history, and bring great joy to those who were. Come on "Hot Rod"...do what you do! If anyone can do it, it's you.
It's stories like these that make you go out to these events, and just imagining that these cars were built before I was born, I just wish I was there...
Quintuple LIKE!! Toooo Short! Give us more footage please. This could have easily been a two hour episode. Thanks for making it happen Hot Rod, Chevy & Edelbrock.
HOT ROD, thank you for stepping up your program and diversifying into the video sets. i know there is not many of you and you are doing it all from press to play. keep it up and we look forward to more great things from you. winning back a former reader.
Christ!!! I've loved, looked at, and drooled over these cars when I was twelve or thirteen... really liked or loathed ( a few) since then. I'm almost sixty now and I want to build just one more. But you... you lucky bastard. You were there... standing over them looking down at them, through your viewfinder, able but maybe unwilling to touch them,(because of 'the code' )... this is such an amazing event and here I am... stuck ( again ) on the the wrong friggin coast. Dammit.
I'm part of that lost age of young'uns and I want more of us to take notice of cars just like these. Cause this is where hot rodding came from, and where it is going.
I remember the cars & drivers,especially the flyin hawaiian. Never to forget ronnie sox,bill hishler,wally booth...I could go on. The glory days live now...only in my memories...
some of those cars were built not only before i was born or my dad was born, when my late grandfather was a teenager. its cool to see these cars that may have influenced not only my dad but my grandfather (who was a hot rodder in the 50s). some of these cars i remember reading about in my Hot Rod magazine collection (which includes various issues from the 60s on up. i still have my 1st issue of Hot Rod, the 1st swimsuit issue i got when i was 7 years old. it was an older issue my unlce gave me).
New HOTROD RUclips show, do a video feature of all of these cars so us young whippersnappers can learn so much more about the history of hotrods and HOTROD.
I remember the article for that orange 55 chevy! I remember a picture a picture of cheeswiz being dumped in the oil, it was just a gag, but it hung around in the memory banks for more than 20 years now!
It's always old guys who own these beautiful cars I know it's probably a thing of money but I'd love to see a 19 year old like myself there showing that hot rodding isn't dead and won't die cuase we will carry it on
Well, ya can find a classic that'll be fun. You just can't expect it to be a '55 Chevy, or a '69 Camaro, or a '32 Ford. It may have to be a more-door, but they're out there. There's a decent '63 Fairlane 2dr post car on my local craigslist for $3500 right now. I should clarify, I'm 17. I don't *own* a classic (the '63 Fairlane on my channel (different one from the one I mentioned earlier) was technically owned by Dad, supposed to be our project but we never worked on it, and the others are my grandfather's)
Omg, I could go on with ‘80’s Hot Rod Magazine feature Cars. The Orange ‘57 Chevy Giveaway Car. The Silver Camaro with the cool for color striping to Black lower. The maroon or candy ‘64 GTO with Square Headlamps.
Jim Wangers, the Godfather of the GTO, and I we happy to display the '66 GeeTO Tiger that was featured in the March 2002 issue of Hot Rod. Jim is seen several times in that amazing autograph session clip. What an amazing event! See more of "Jim Wangers and the GeeTO Tiger" on Facebook.
damn i was hoping to see something about the cheese whiz 55 chevy that i used to read about back in the early 90s..as a kid i would always steal my dad's magazines and read them..and this was one of the most memorable (for me) feature cars with a really cool story behind it!
Man, I wish I got to go! I'd be a little kid in a candy shop. That 72 Orange Chevy Chevelle SS was sexy and I know Carl Shelby's spirit was in that place. R.I.P Carl Shelby.
The announcer on the video stated Tommy Ivo's AA/Fuel Barnstormer dragster was the first to run in the 8's. It was the first dragster to run in the 7's on the West Coast, not the 8's. His Twin Buick Gas Dragster was the first dragster to run in the 8's back in 1959.

The passion you guys projected on what you do was totally transparent in this video. You guys are the best!!!

this episode is EPIC ... we need more sequels of this
Man, what a wonderful display of automotive history. Hopefully you have more coverage in the future.

Come on "Hot Rod"...do what you do! If anyone can do it, it's you.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! I ENJOY SPENDING MY TIME WITH MY HOT ROD FAMILY!!! YOU GUYS ARE TOTALLY AWESOME!!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! I LOVE MY HOT ROD FAMILY!!!! YOU GUYS ARE GREAT!!!!
This was a very special episode. On of the best in my opinion.
It's stories like these that make you go out to these events, and just imagining that these cars were built before I was born, I just wish I was there...
Brings back memories!
Thanks for putting them all together HOT ROD Magazine!
Greatest show of all time.
Wow. Unbelieveable coverage. Total goosebumps, this stuff. Awesome.
Quintuple LIKE!! Toooo Short! Give us more footage please. This could have easily been a two hour episode. Thanks for making it happen Hot Rod, Chevy & Edelbrock.

This is so much fun to get to see - CONGRATULATIONS HOT ROD - thrilling and fun!
Thanks - we appreciate the feedback!
Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
I could listen to fryburger talk about the cars and the people all day. Very cool, one day i could be in hot rod magazine.
HOT ROD, thank you for stepping up your program and diversifying into the video sets. i know there is not many of you and you are doing it all from press to play. keep it up and we look forward to more great things from you. winning back a former reader.
Great Video! Only in America. My hats off to Hot Rod and its staff. You guys rock!
Dear Hot Rod,
Thanks for the upload and the memories. Those were the days my friend.
Yet ANOTHER fantastic episode ! Thank You Motor Trend and Hot Rod Magazine.
Wow. Just wow. My dad was a HRM subscriber for YEARS and I just saw a ton of cars that I recognized :) Awesome stuff guys, really awesome!
Christ!!! I've loved, looked at, and drooled over these cars when I was twelve or thirteen... really liked or loathed ( a few) since then. I'm almost sixty now and I want to build just one more.
But you... you lucky bastard. You were there... standing over them looking down at them, through your viewfinder, able but maybe unwilling to touch them,(because of 'the code' )... this is such an amazing event and here I am... stuck ( again ) on the the wrong friggin coast. Dammit.
This brought a tear to my eyes.Remembering the old days when we used to cruz the beach.AHH those were the best of times.
YES YES YES YES YES!!! Motortrend / Hot Rod Magazine PLEASE PLEASE make this happen! Great idea Eightballjr!
I'm part of that lost age of young'uns and I want more of us to take notice of cars just like these. Cause this is where hot rodding came from, and where it is going.
Thanks DDOC - That's the nicest thing the internet has ever said to me. - Elana
Great job on the Homecoming Episode 31, David. Really enjoyed all the memories it invoked. All it needed was the RumbleBee to complete it ;-)
I have wanted Guy's orange '34 ever since I saw it in the 40th Anniversary issue. Good to see it's still around and looking just as good as ever!
It was all souls day in the way-back machine at this Hot Rod extravaganza!
Just like the Brit dude in the van video, this one is epic and shows the true spirit of something that is now a dying breed.
incredible! wished I was there to look through history and appreciate it in person.
I remember the cars & drivers,especially the flyin hawaiian. Never to forget ronnie sox,bill hishler,wally booth...I could go on. The glory days live now...only in my memories...
would have loved to see this in person. jay Leno's garage is another venue I need to see.
i was there that saturday morning...Koolest thing ever! even the new stingray was there!
Loved it all!
When Elana speaks, I listen because she is always faithful to the foundation of hot rodding.
some of those cars were built not only before i was born or my dad was born, when my late grandfather was a teenager. its cool to see these cars that may have influenced not only my dad but my grandfather (who was a hot rodder in the 50s). some of these cars i remember reading about in my Hot Rod magazine collection (which includes various issues from the 60s on up. i still have my 1st issue of Hot Rod, the 1st swimsuit issue i got when i was 7 years old. it was an older issue my unlce gave me).
that video blows me away.....thanks for it....

Great idea and great job, this is why I buy hot rod magazines
I recognized quite a few of these cars that became posters on my room growing up.
Great video love to see all types of old cars
Man i wish i was there!! I could stay there from start till finish!!
Truly amazing.... im speechless.
You could do a ten minute video on nearly every car!
Awesome video thanks for the memories!
New HOTROD RUclips show, do a video feature of all of these cars so us young whippersnappers can learn so much more about the history of hotrods and HOTROD.
Almost passed till i saw freiburger and finnegan and knew it was going to be a awsome video and boy was i right. Thanks guys
Great post enjoy! love these cars!
Greatest car show ever.
I remember the article for that orange 55 chevy! I remember a picture a picture of cheeswiz being dumped in the oil, it was just a gag, but it hung around in the memory banks for more than 20 years now!
Only thing wrong with this vid is it's too short. Could've been an hour.
It's always old guys who own these beautiful cars I know it's probably a thing of money but I'd love to see a 19 year old like myself there showing that hot rodding isn't dead and won't die cuase we will carry it on

Me too; the GoodGuys Hot Rod organization has awards specifically dedicated for the younger rodder. Called Young Guns Award. Check them out.
It's the only reason I subscribed.

How in the hell did I miss this show? Oh now I remember...cars down and cant go to a show without being in it.
I agree with this man. I have been interested in them but I never bothered to learn more about them due to me not wanting to read.
Omg, I could go on with ‘80’s Hot Rod Magazine feature Cars. The Orange ‘57 Chevy Giveaway Car. The Silver Camaro with the cool for color striping to Black lower.
The maroon or candy ‘64 GTO with Square Headlamps.
I LOVE MY HOT ROD FAMILY!!!!
MotorTrend please make a longer version

Scott Sullivans Cheeze Whizz orange 55" had me at hello!! Still an awesome car by todays standards!
damn i was hoping to see something about the cheese whiz 55 chevy that i used to read about back in the early 90s..as a kid i would always steal my dad's magazines and read them..and this was one of the most memorable (for me) feature cars with a really cool story behind it!

R.I.P Carl Shelby.

Why can't I hold all of these feels?
The announcer on the video stated Tommy Ivo's AA/Fuel Barnstormer dragster was the first to run in the 8's. It was the first dragster to run in the 7's on the West Coast, not the 8's. His Twin Buick Gas Dragster was the first dragster to run in the 8's back in 1959.
You guys have a dream job

Just amazing
Looks like a killer show
