Since yesterday’s Ford street rod was so well received, I think it’s time to give Chevy their due. The General Motors division, in addition to bringing along a raft of custom Camaros to this year’s SEMA show, also produced along a rather tastefully done up 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air with an attractively finished LS3 crate [...]
Dropping a new mill into and old car has been going on since the new models first started rolling out more than a hundred years ago. Shoot, that’s what made the hot rod craze what it is when it started back in the 1950s. But here’s a modern take on the hot rod, literally. [...]
“Dodge Challenger SRT10″.
Got a helluva nice ring to it, dontcha think?
The current top-o-the-line Challenger, the SRT8, is a pretty beastly muscle car, one that delivered more than its rabid fans had expected. Quite frankly, its performance statistics are more than enough.

Among all of the aftermarket parts and electronics at SEMA, there were plenty of new car care products on display. It’s easy to walk by them in the same way you would at the local auto parts store since most of them look the same, and as far as most of us are concerned, produce [...]

This “hip” new Kia sports a 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine pushing out 290 horsepower, moving through an AWD drivetrain and a [...]

Underground Racing showed off their Lamborghini Gallardo Twin Turbo at SEMA 2008. Being one of the fastest Gallardos in the world, this Lambo has a quarter-mile time of only 9.9 seconds at 161.8 MPH.
Upgrades to the Gallardo include twin billet turbos, forged pistons, Penske suspension, K&N air filter, HRE wheels, air/water intercooler, among more things. [...]
You know, when a living, breathing, thinking human being does this to a car, any car, it gets me wondering how we as a species ever managed to dominate the little planet called Earth.
It gets even worse when I realize that said moron has committed a crime of this magnitude to a Mustang….
Sigh.
