I’m a big fan of the stuff that they build at ICON. They take a lot of awesome nostalgic cars and trucks and put modern running gear under them. Muscle car guys would call these “Resto-Mod” except ICON likes to work with old 4×4’s like the Toyota Landcruiser and Ford Bronco. The owner of ICON, Jonathan Ward, started this Derelict product line after coming across some old American cars with perfect patina. The first Derelict is this Chrysler Town and Country wagon with a Desoto front end that Ward built for himself. There’s a complete modern chassis under the body and a new 6.4 liter Hemi V8 under the hood. It could be due to the fact that I also own a rusty car, but I think what they did with the wagon is just fantastic.
eGarage’s Josh Clason brings us this footage from last year’s Viva Las Vegas hot rod show.
My friend Adam showed me this video of the Downshift Studios shop rig. It’s a beautiful 1928 Ford Model A Roadster.
Speedhunters did a feature on this amazing 1947 Chevy truck autocross project. It’s powered by a circle track racing Chevy V8 with the customized body sitting on a shortened S10 chassis with Ridetech suspension. Head over to Speedhunters to see more pictures and read the whole story behind the project.
