TRUCKS ON TRACK!
Hot Rod
|January 2024
Dozens of Chevys, a few GMCs, and two lonely Fords battle it out at the 6th annual Pro Touring Truck Shootout!

Time to hit the button on the wayback machine: Arnie Gonzalez grew up in Miami where exotic (code for expensive) cars are the norm. He wanted to stand out, so he ended up gravitating towards trucks. He worked for a race team and wrenched at a shop called California Custom Sport Trucks, and his dad worked at a high-end car dealership. So, as you can see, he was surrounded by custom and performance cars, and when that passion collided with his love of old trucks, well, this event was the result. "My vision of a Pro Touring truck is having one that can hang with a Porsche on some curvy country road in England," Gonzalez recalled.

RESURRECTED
Not every great idea nails it on the first try. Henry Ford designed and built nine vehicles before perfecting his formula with the Model T, and the Corvette didn't even offer a V-8 engine until its third model year.

SUPER FANS OF THE SUPERVAN
The party was over. The fun was done. That was the familiar refrain for the U.S. auto industry in the early ’70s, as several socially and federally driven changes meant high compression, and hood scoops gave way to compact cars and catalytic converters.

ROBIDA
Early in my career of slinging words and capturing moments for automotive publications, this New Jersey guy (me) was asked by a local car enthusiast if I was ever going to pack up my home, my cars, and my gear and head to the “epicenter” of the classic car hobby, which this guy insisted was in Southern California.
