CRUZIN MAGAZINE #298
Cruzin #298 is loaded with the kind of cars and stories that remind us why we’re all hopelessly hooked on this stuff!
Leading the charge from the USA is Stanley Chavik’s incredible 1932 Ford Roadster, a late-’40s/early-’50s competition-inspired Deuce packed with handmade engineering and recognised with the Outstanding Engineering Award at the Grand National Roadster Show.
Back in Australia, Tim and Rebecca Cox’s 1952 Pontiac Chieftain is a beautifully chopped, LS-powered family cruiser, while Mark Bonello’s 1939 Ford Sloper turns back the clock with genuine Aussie hot rod history and an unmistakable ’80s influence. Dylon Evers’ 1929 Ford Tourer proves a discarded body with a rather questionable backyard history can become one seriously cool family hot rod, and Julian Gill’s XL Falcon Panel Van fulfils a 40-year promise to his dad.
We also meet James Minas of Jimmy’s Kustoms, check out the traditional customs at the Taildragger Kustom Invitational, join the fun at the Ballarat Rod Run and continue our full-size Big T replica build, this time getting serious about the bodywork.
The regulars are firing too. Norm Hardinge takes Cruzin the Salt back to Bonneville Speed Week; It’s a Gas! gets stuck into Callum Scott’s brutal 1965 AP6 Valiant gasser; New Zealand-based Craig “Style” Counsell checks out the inaugural Taupo Tri-5 Nationals; Alan Barton explores the reborn Keeler’s Kustoms model kits; and Lori Lee takes us backstage for a rocking Saturday night at GreazeFest.
