 Our buddy Ted Dzus built this crazy Mercury, complete with a Shafiroff supercharged 540 big block Chevy cranking out 635 HP, but with a comfy custom interior as well. Kelle interviewed Ted on the 2010 Hot Rod Power Tour as he drove his "School Bus Yellow" Merc cross country with his pals. Click HERE for Ted's website!

 Brett Evans is a guy who likes to build cars that look cool and go fast. You may recognize him from the "Splitter" 1970 Trans Am build on V8TV. Before that car, he built this killer turbocharged ’65 Mustang Fastback. You can contact him at Outlaw Turbo Motorsports for help with your turbo car build!

 This high-tech 1970 Chevy Nova not only sports the Pro-Touring look, but it has the parts to match. Starting with a full Speed Tech suspension system, the car also features aluminum 6.0 LS engine, T56 Magnum transmission, 9" rear end, Forgeline wheels, Baer brakes, and more. Shot at the 2010 Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitational event.

 This is one of the cleanest 2nd generation Firebirds we've ever seen, and the best part is that it is driven hard and performs as well. The body features dozens of subtle modifications, the interior is all custom, the suspension is Detroit Speed, and the power comes from a 575 HP Mast Motorsports L99.

 This awesome 1965 Corvette built by the team at Performance Restorations in Mundelien, IL, was originally going to be a show car, but builder Brent Jarvis has been bitten by the road race bug. The result is a show quality car that sports a complete road race driveline and chassis, complete with a 900 horsepower all-aluminum big block Chevy engine, a clutchless 5-speed manual trans, huge brakes, and more. The cosmic paint scheme is old-school candy apple red over silver flake. Shot at the 2010 Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitational event.

 Mark Stielow builds musclecars that truly raise the bar. The latest, "Red Devil," is a supercharged 427 (based off the LS9) that makes tons of power but retains new-car drivability. The complete Detroit Speed suspension system helps it stick to the road. It's no wonder this car won the 2010 Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitational event!

 We've seen shaved door handles, drip rails, trim... but lettering off
tires? Pretty smooth. This cool little 1966 Chevy II has a great
stance, and the owner took the time to shave the lettering off the tires
by hand! Cool trick, slick car!

 Finish Line Performance (www.FLP2WIN.com) has teamed up with Nickey Chicago to continue the performance legend of the Nickey Muscle Cars. This Nickey Stage 3 car features a twin turbocharged LS3 engine making 600 horsepower and 600 foot-pounds of torque at the wheels, all while keeping great drivability and road manners. However, this car is soon to be upgraded to a 1300 horsepower 427, an option on the Stage 3 cars!

 Larry Callahan runs the website Pro-Touring.com , and his own twin turbocharged 1968 Camaro is a textbook example of the kinds of cars the website is built around. The "MotiV8r" Camaro features every pro-touring trick in the book, and was built by Prodigy Customs to run as good as it looks. Video from the 2009 Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitational DVD .

 Amir Rosenbaum brought the Speed By Spectre 1970 El Camino to the Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitational event in Pahrump, NV, where we took a quick look at the car. It's a super-slick road and track machine, powered by a dry-sumped LS7 V8 that's been set back and dropped low in the chassis and backed by a T56 6-speed manual trans. We like the fact that Rosenbaum isn't afraid to push it to the limits on the track!

 Back in 1967, Felix Lopez bought a 1967 Chevrolet RS/SS Camaro from Nickey Chevrolet in Chicago, featuring a high-performance 427 with a 4-speed and 3 2-barrel carbs. Amazingly, he still owns and shows the car today. What's perhaps more amazing is that Lopez served an 8-year tour in the Viet Nam War, making him and his Nickey Camaro great examples of what we call "Survivors." Shot at the 2010 Chicago World Of Wheels / Chevy Vettefest show.

 The Roadster Shop builds some killer cars, and they were recently out beating up one of their most amazing creations, the RSC1 Corvette. Starting life as a 1962 Corvette, the Roadster Shop crew transformed every piece of this car into a slick high-tech version of the timeless C1 Corvette. Starting with a complete new RS Performance chassis, they added a GM LS7 engine, Kinsler EFI, giant brakes, and all the right parts to make it stop, go, and turn. Then they reworked every panel on the car, added a custom interior, and started winning awards. We think the best part is that this car gets driven hard on road course and autocross tracks. This interview was shot at the 2009 Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitational, and is part of an upcoming DVD of the event.

 Charley Lillard brought his 1970 Chevrolet Camaro "garage find" to the first annual Muscle Car & Corvette Nationals show in Rosemont, Il. Our buddy Shafi Keisler caught up with Charley to learn the story of this legitimate 1130 mile all-original car. Lillard obtained the car from the original owner who parked it after it got dinged one day, and it sat in a heated garage for nearly 40 years. Would you believe original air in the tires? Check out Charley's website for more on this incredible car!

 Project American Heroes 3 is a fantastic 1970 Chevelle built by Route 66 Motorsports to be auctioned off to raise funds for the Armed Forces Foundation.

It features a new GM LSA supercharged engine, TCI 4L80E transmission, Detroit Speed suspension, and about a million other cool parts.

 This slick 1967 Buick Wagon was built as a showcase for the talents of Greg Peterson and the crew at Extreme Powder Coating to show the diversity of today's high-tech powder finishes. We liked it 'cause it's a super cool cruiser, with Buick power, AirRide suspension, and a very unique look.
