It is Rad Rides by Troy! The cars in the picture is a 57 Nomad, 69 Camaro, and a 49 Delivery Truck, and either the 37 or 40 Ford Convertible their working on! The shop will be on TLC's Rides coming up soon, for the project Rogan's 70 Cuda. They rebuilt Joe Rogans Cuda, the host of Fear Factor. I got the first time they were on rides when they made the Fast Forward Fastback, a 67 Mustang, for ebay!

The Sick Fish cuda is already done.

TLC had a special on it more than 6 months ago. It was also at World Of Wheels this year.

Yup....it's Rad Rides. I met Moose, Jack, Levi and saw Troy but didn't talk to him. I met him a couple of months back and he is a great guy.

I stopped there on the way back from Springfield....it was awesome.
Those are the friendliest bunch of guys. They said yeah, come in...walk around feel free to take pics. We were in another room where the Fast Forward Fast Back was made by ourselves with the below car. It was an awesome experience.

The guy in the above pic is Mike...winner of last years raffle car.

Anyone passing through Manteno should stop.
They are a great bunch of guys and seeing their work up close makes it that much more incredible.

Yes, thats Manny's car. There is a Riddler contestant there as well. It's the last car. I sent some pics. They are pretty big so I'll send them in groups.

Here are a few Tour Pics since I can't get that stupid thing up top to work right.

ah transam..so that was your car that i saw with the rims..
sorry i didn't meet ya...nice car btw....

i didn't even see the purple formula!
nice car there....

funny thing about that gt 500...
we saw it there at the show..and was looking for the owner...
wanted to talked to him about it...well couldn't find him..
but when we were doing the tour...sunday, we stopped by a gas station and low and behold here he drives in..
and we started talking to him..telling him how sorry we are for seeing such a faith to happen to such a nice car...
and he explained that someone just ran into him on the way to the show...busted the lower ball joint and tie rod end...
fixed it in one day and had it aligned in the morning and took it from there to the show... hope he get's it fixed to oem specs again ...guy came all the way from texas to have this happen to him esh


another story was we were driving by the ohare oasis... a real nice "rare" dodge daytona was drivng by us ...with the nose and large "adjustable" spoiler...and then all of the sudden, it start bellowing blue smoke from the pipes and pulled into the oasis...sucks to see that happen...however believe it or not it actually made it to the show
we saw it sat afternoon...so good for him...
