Custom Car Magazine December 2023 Back Issue

English
23 Reviews   •  English   •   Aviation & Transport (Automotive)
Only £5.99
In the December issue of Custom Car, we lift the lid on Mark Barrett's first true hot rod build, a vehicle loosely described as a ’37 Chevy pick-up, given that very little of the original metalwork remains. Powered by a Blueprint Chevy 383 stroker engine, this truck is as impressive as it gets for a first build. The thousands of hours invested in this project were recognised at the National Hod Rod, Custom and American Car Show where it won the prestigious Best in Britain title. Make sure to read our detailed feature on this custom pick-up.

From one labour of love to another, we give you a close-up review of a ’39 Ford coupe custom car. Owned by Grahame 'Whiff' Smith, a familiar name to Custom Car mag readers, the vehicle has undergone a complete restoration with the help of Roy Pitter of Hot Rods and Choppers. Roy supplied everything and fit it for the conversion in a trade with Whiff for his expert work at stitching interiors for his own Ford F100 pick-up project. Read all about Whiff’s ’39 Ford coupe custom car, along with features on the NSRA Fun on the Beach 2023, and the Mopar Euronationals, and so much more by acquiring your copy of Custom Car Magazine today!
