Deville's Hot Rods to Hell

More leopard-print than a Johnny Weissmuller film! More smoke than a Marlboro convention! More throbbing engines than Daytona Beach!

Last year’s Hot Rods to Hell was one hotdiggity afternoon: Hot Rods & Kustoms, tiki cocktails, tattoos, kickass music, barbers, babes, vintage wares, art & kiddies fun… in one venue.
Forget cutting the lawn… cut a path to Deville’s Pad tomorrow.

Summersun Twilight Cruise 2012

Summersun Cruise to Mandurah 2012

Without my lovely wife/on-board-’nag’ivator/photographer this year, there’s a bit of a paucity of images. Sorry folks… it ain’t easy steering crossplys across excavated freeway roads, while photographing through the windscreen.

On the plus side, the weather was much cooler than last year, and we didn’t have a cattle truck road-raging alongside.

Check the gallery.

The Von Dwingelo Custom Tbird

January 17th, 2012 by Tracy | 1 Comment - click to view »

Came across this article on the great online archive Modern Mechanix: “A Portfolio of Cars You’d Like to Own” - hell yeah! Some are downright whacky: the ‘Jigger’ resembling a moonbuggy crossed with BurgerKing signage, and the 3-wheeler made from junked parts.

But this ’56 Thunderbird, customised by Don Von Dwingelo & Tony Bruskivage of New Jersey, displays inventive uses of inter-species splicing (Chevy / Olds / Ford)… and would have been impressive in full-colour with its 16 coats of red lacquer. It was insured, back in ’62, for $15,000.
