Custom Car August is here, so you can go your own way, let the hammer fall and decide whether it’s all for nothing between the pages of this latest issue.
This month, we celebrate sixty years of British drag racing at the 2024 Dragstalgia event, bring you the second part of our “Blown A-Way” feature and discuss great racing, even through the dreaded downpours.
Think you know what a rat is? Nankang Tyres might have you thinking again with their divisive not-rat-rod, while Doorslammers will have your eyes watering with the field of modern vehicles that turned out for a shot at the life-changing sums on offer for those crowned as winners.
For more of the latest news from the strip, custom creations beyond eye-catching quality and dates for your dragster diary, get your copy of the August issue today.

This month we go proper old-school, get real lowdown and carry on regardless… July brings us another feature-filled issue of Custom Car Magazine with all of the latest race updates and tales from the strip we’ve been waiting for.
The power of social media has been proven once again as, thankfully for Nick Barnett, it was on his side the day his ’32 roadster was stolen from his driveway. Facebook came up trumps with a quick message from a user saying the car had been found abandoned a few streets away. Not even being blocked in by another vehicle kept thieves from taking Nick’s car… Let this be a wake-up call to us all!
We visit Mike Zschorn and the custom Anglia he has owned for no less than the last 50 years. Few of us can lay claim to owning a vehicle for anything like that long – nor indeed to only having had one modified car in our lifetime. Read how, what was his daily driver, reaped the benefits of some staff discount at Lotus Cars and went on to have several rounds of customisation to become the stunner featured from page 10.
Santa Pod’s Festival of Power finally got underway after being postponed thanks to persistent rainfall which left the site’s carparks waterlogged way into spring. Sadly, the event was abandoned altogether just after midday as, yes you guessed it, more torrential rain fell. You can still check out the results and photos from the races that did go ahead while they could in this month’s issue however.
The rods, mods and the customisation gods never stop and so neither does Custom Car Magazine. The July issue is out now and brings its readers all of the latest articles, news and events information. Get your copy today!

The merriment of May is upon us and, if the corresponding issue of Custom Car is anything to go by, we are in for a month full to the front fenders with fun! It’s fresh off the press, so let’s take a peek at what’s in store…
Ever wonder what your retirement might look like? Light lunches in the garden? Plenty of holidays and the odd trip to see the grandkids? How about some nitromethane induced mayhem instead? We talk to Bryan Whitfield, who refused to take ‘staring out of the window until he died’ as a serious option for his retirement and instead hatched a plan with friends to spend his days building and then racing a Nostalgia Fuel Altered.
If you fancy turning green with tiki-themed envy, head to page 24 where we feature yet another returning car from 2002. Must have been something in the water back then, because Head Turner goes above and beyond living up to its name.
If hot rodding started out with young guys bucking the trend, it has to be said that its now older guys following a formed convention. So then, why not inject a little punk into the mix? Neil Hill’s Steampunk themed, scrapheap-salvaged ‘32 is doing just that, and the crowds roll in to see it. Love it or hate it, read all about it in this month’s issue.
The East Side Invitational returned last year for the first time in the UK since 2016. With quality on show around every corner, it was a treat from the moment you stepped inside the new, and hopefully returning, venue. See for yourself the array of awesome autos that were on display from page 50.
A column-crunching line-up of articles, important dates for your diary, news, reviews and much, much more await you between the pages of this month’s Custom Car – get your copy now!

Dragstalgia 1
Some decidedly amateur video clips from Dragstalgia last weekend.
Sorry about the quality, I promise to try harder next time...
