Here's another great Oz Welch creation-Roger Stevens' triple-tone, chopped '57 Buick wagon. With cut-down and lengthened quarters, Motorspot wires with genuine knockoff spinners, and the stock Nailhead with three deuces, the wagon provided some tough competition for the WMBC prize. | 
Hot Rod Service Company did a lot of work on Tony Sampino's silver '40 Ford, which the Autorama judges picked as the winner in it's class. The brightwork on the 4.6-liter Cobra motor, the Ron Mangus interior, plus some elegant bodywork contributed to the decision, we're sure. |  |
There's a lot to look at on Roger Scott's channeled '26 T sedan, one of our favorites traditional hot rods from the Suede Pavilion. The engine choice is a 250 inline-six with three 1V carbs on an Offy manifold and the custom '56 Merc dash was a cool surprise. | 
The outdoor portion of the show was for driven-in vehicles like Anthony Orta's '51 Chevy pickup, a $300 gift from his dad when he was 15. Anthony redid the whole truck, building up the small-block, re-covering the stock seats, and dropping it just enough. The paint is a Lamborghini Diablo color. | 
The monochrome candy tangerine finish on this '41 Ford Business Coupe clinched an Outstanding Paint prize for the chopped and reshaped, fat-fendered smoothie. The car is owned by Dick Graese and was built by Bobby Anderson. |

Oh my goodness-is this traditional?! Not exactly, but the traditional crowd is loosening up enough to appreciate a traditionally-inspired rod like Laura "Rusty" Parkers LT1-running '36 Dodge pickup. Rusty's hauler has modified with a two-inch chop and some cool interior work. | 
You've already seen a full feature on Gary and Nancy Pettigrew 's '35. Hupmobile sedan in R&C. Here's another look at the owner-designed and built odd rod, which won a Radical Rod Sedan award in Sacramento. The engine is an LS1 disguised as a '54 Dodge Red Ram. |
Richard Zocchi boldly covered his '61 Olds in pink paint, shot by Art Himsl over John Aiello's incredible bodywork. The WMBC contender features a '60 Merc grille, '60 Buick headlights, handmade skirts, and a '61 Starliner top. |  | 
John D'Agostino's interpretation of a '61 Olds is nicknamed Aladdin, and was also in the running for WMBC. The bodywork was handled by Bill Hines' Kustom Shop, with paint applied by Oz Kustoms. It's a knockout. |
