Bill Kullbom from Burlington, Iowa owns this tight little Nailhead-powered '31 Model A Sedan built for him by our old buddy Drew Didio, the same tin-bashing genius behind the Coupe of Justice. Now Burlington Bill's sedan is one of the finalists for the 2008 Street Rodder Magazine / Turtle Wax Street Rod of the Year. You are forthwith encouraged to drop by the Street Rodder website and cast your vote for them. Not only are Bill and Drew two of the nicest guys you'll ever meet, your vote will show you don't need a gazillion bucks to make a kickass hot rod, just talent and imagination.
I was going to ask what a Nailhead engine was, but decided to look it up on Wikipedia instead. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buick_V8_engine My automotive trivia lesson of the day. Turns out that my first car, a 1965 Buick Skylark 2-door hardtop with the 300 V8 and power glide, isn't too far removed from the nailhead engine. Who knew?

I always like classic cars. Both outside and inside the car looks dashing. I don't even see a single scratch, whoever wants to see one anyway? The owner of this car must have had a good time in maintaining it. Driving this car must be really worth it.

Classic cars never go out of style and elegance. My friend actually rented a vintage car during a vacation in France last year. He told me how amazing the cars are! I would also love to test drive those cars anytime soon!

Hot rods, not only classics but the purest in form of style and performance. If you don't love classic cars you gotta love hot rods.

That's some nifty work done into it. Not only the outside looks graceful, the inside is really hardcore!
