Hot
Rod: Resurrection of a Legend - In the late 1950s a slightly
mad kart racer named Frank "Duff" Livingston had
the nerve to enter the quintessential American vehicle-a hot
rod-in a sports car race. Hot rods may have been successful
in crude American-style drag races, but according to conventional
wisdom, they had no place competing on a road course against
European sports cars. But Duff and his Eliminator defied that
wisdom and beat some of the finest sports cars in the world.
The Eliminator soon went into retirement, but many people
remembered its achievements. One of these people happened
to be Brock Yates, who acquired the Eliminator in the 1990s.
Hot
Rods As They Were: Another Blast from the Past - "Hot
