Hot Rod Vacuum for the Rodfather!


Article courtesy Goodguys Hot News

During the annual Bay Area Roadsters Christmas Party (held in Jackson, California), our friend Dave Schaub (who once drove his '32 roadster through all 49 states in 7 days to benefit the Ronald McDonald House) made a fellow club member way happy!

Per club tradition, members draw names of fellow members out of a hat for the annual gift exchange. Schaub drew none other than the Rodfather himself Andy Brizio! And then he got busy.

Schaub built what has to be the coolest 50s-era vintage vacuum cleaner we've ever seen! Phil Whetstone did the paint and flames to match Andy's flamed purple deuce hiboy roadster. It also features a hot dog hood ornament, VW pushrod tubes for the exhaust and a 1965 VW turn signal on the top!

Talk about the ultimate hot rod Christmas gift! Word has it that the Rodfather was nearly moved to tears and the whole party flipped out over just how cool this thing really is.

Well done Dave Schaub-Claus! You're the man!

   Association of California Car Clubs (ACCC) 

REPRESENTING
COLLECTOR VEHICLE HOBBYISTS
IN CALIFORNIA SINCE 1972

The Association of California Car Clubs (ACCC) is a volunteer organization with regional representatives who represent the interests of individual members and member clubs across the state. The ACCC consists of thousands of automobile hobbyists throughout the state who are interested in California laws and policies regarding collector automobiles.

Hobby clubs and individuals joining the ACCC contribute to the protection of the hobby and are kept informed of the latest issues affecting our clubs.

These representatives form the Board of Directors, serve without pay and are elected from the pool of active auto enthusiasts in this state

Cramming a war-surplus PT boat engine into an Eight-liter Bentley chassis might not seem like the most sensible plan, but watching this thing shake and roar itself awake will hammer that sense back into you with the force of 3.5-liter pistons.
As you might expect, once those massive shorty header pipes start spitting flames, you should be able to shake off the last vestiges of your too-short slumber and get with the weekday program.

Music...It's deep in our roots.  

We live it, breathe it and make it kick!

In 1973, KICKER's Livin' Loud legacy began as a two-man operation, hand-building professional-speaker systems in a narrow one-car garage. With very few resources and an intense love for music, company founder and current President Steve Irby invented the mobile-stereo enclosure market in his northern Oklahoma community, when he developed the Original KICKER.

It was the first full frequency-range speaker box designed specifically for cars and trucks. From that historic moment, delivering concert-like audio quality across a wide volume range with renowned bass and accurate sound has always been the KICKER way.

KICKER graces the Stillwater, Okla., skyline and has stayed true to the values from which the company was built. KICKER products are designed and shipped from a 280,000-square-foot facility that houses nearly 200 energetic individuals who constantly push the limits of audio-design technology and performance.

  

KICKER products are currently sold by approximately 1,200 authorized dealers in the United States, and export sales are managed through a network of distributors serving over 2,000 dealers in approximately 50 countries.

Established in 1987, the Pick-n-Pull chain of self-service auto parts stores is one of the largest recyclers of end-of-life vehicles in the industry. You bring your tools, pull the parts you need and SAVE lots of money! Their 48 U.S. and 3 Canadian locations offer a huge a selection of used OEM (original equipment manufacturer) parts for cars, vans and light trucks - all makes and models, foreign and domestic - all at incredibly low prices.

Pick-n-Pull is proud of the fact that they recycle more than 350,000 vehicles and service more than 5 million self-service customers each year.

Pick-n-Pull is a subsidiary of Schnitzer Steel Industries, Inc., a global leader in the metals recycling industry that has been in business for over a century. Although Pick-n-Pull and Schnitzer have worked together since 1989, Pick-n-Pull became a fully owned subsidiary of Schnitzer in 2003 as part of its Auto Parts Business unit.  

Being part of a Fortune 1000 company has enabled them to grow stronger and introduce cost efficiencies into their system that have allowed them to bring environmental and cost benefits to their customers. At the same time, the Pick-n-Pull stores have retained the regional and local focus that has made them popular with their customers.

Bonnie & Clyde Getaway Car

In early 1934, Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow stole a V8 Ford and drove it around the Midwest, robbing and killing people.

That joyride ended when lawmen punctured the car (and Bonnie and Clyde) with over 100 armor-piercing bullets.

On the way back from the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the Kohout's made a pit stop at Whiskey Pete's in Primm Valley, Nevada and ran across this Ford Sedan. It was in a glass case so the photos are not the greatest.

SURF CITY GARAGE  PRODUCTS

So where did Surf City Garage detailing products  

come from?

Well, to keep the cars looking great, we tried every car care product around, but I just wasn't satisfied with the quality or performance. So we developed our own complete line of Enthusiast GradeŪ detailing products -- recognized around the world as the best anyone can buy. Our guarantee: if these aren't the best products you've ever used, give me a call and I'll personally buy them back - is unmatched in the industry.  

That's why, every day, more and more enthusiasts are switching to Surf City Garage Enthusiast GradeŪ - because nothing else even comes close.

We hope to foster a new generation of automotive industry leaders, entrepreneurs, innovators, enthusiasts and more. 

 

Over the last 75 years, the Edelbrock family has proven itself as a leader and pioneer within the automotive aftermarket industry.
