Rod Pin-ups - For as long as young men have been channeling,
chopping, and hopping up rods and customs, women-whether loyal
girlfriends or trouble-seeking 'bad girls'-have been integral
to the scene. In this unique portfolio evoking great 1950s
pin-up artists like Vargas
and Elvgren, talented photographer David Perry depicts
models in and out of cherry-picked rods and customs and wearing
painstakingly chosen period dress and hairstyles. More
than 100 photos present these modern-day pin-ups under
three themes: Garage, Cruising, and Race. In addition, essays
explore each topic and are accompanied by pulp novel covers,
period mags, and ads that place the photography in a historical
context.

string of laughs on Welcome Back, Kotter.
