The gentlemen from Alumicraft Street Rod Grilles loved Steve Hatcher’s ’69 Camaro SS that features a Speed Tec chassis, a 427ci LS7 out of a C6, big Forgeline wheels with BFG rubber, and
Laguna Blue paint from a 2016 Corvette for a “Pros’ Pick.”
Bakersfield locals Micheal & Renee Hulbrt are always cruising around and hav- ing a great time in their “Rep/Safety Pick” win- ning ’61 Ford Thunderbird that sits slammed on US Mags wrapped in Michelin rubber, goes with 390 power, and looks good in Raven Silk Black paint.
One of our favorite fresh rides was Shawn Grey’s ’40 Ford pickup that has a tubular Mustang II IFS, Ford 302 power, Goodyear-wrapped Budniks, a sectioned hood covered in custom Yellow PPG paint, and a Purkiser leather interior.
