Von Hot Rod lamp - who here would display this in their living room?

Mercury Cyclone that used ro race in NASCAR

"La Challenger" funny car

This was one of the most popular Fnny cars back in the early 70s before being sold off and disappearing - only to reappear here at sema!

Just next to La Challenger is John Force's Funny Car - the sport has certainly come a long way in the last 46 years

Falken sponsored c3 Corvette

Headlight conversion to remove the pop-up apparatus that the c3 Corvettes came with

Beautifully restored Tonka truck

Jeep Rubicon ready for some serious off-roading

A lot of custom engraving on this cafe racer

Check out the level of detail in that engraving!

Big turbos seem popular at SEMA - this truck may look rough around the edges but it has some serious power

That turbo is bigger than my head!

While the truck looks rough, it has actually been to together with extreme attention to detail and it really shows

Rear-Mounted Radiator as well as a few bottles of Nitrous and the exhaust soming straight out of where the truck bed should be

The Batmobile!

No side mirrors? This thing must have HUGE blindspots

I love that Ford didn't wash the GT afterwards:

Custom build at the Meguiars booth

Engine bay so clean that you could eat off of it!

Vintage Harley Davidson

Another build at the Mothers booth

Can anyone name the engine and the car it originally comes from?

Flawless finish on the paint - well done Meguiar's!

Brushed trim and a matte finish panel come together well for a clean look

Big Hoosier Tires on this dragster

Along with a wheelie bar and a Parachute to help this COPO keep the right side up.

Yellow Stang convertible. Looks like a '65 to me, anyone know for sure?

I believe it's a '68.

 

[Mantilgh]

Awesome photos and insane rides!!!

I love that Ford didn't wash the GT afterwards:

That's what I was thinking, they'd never send it back out looking like that. I guess we know it's the real deal though. I wonder who does the cars on race teams?

 

[Paul@Autogeek]

Dual purpose Jeep Rubicon with a cool wrap on it

Details on the Jeep

Another shot of the Sugar High Jeep

Something about this Jeep screams out "Murica!"

 

[Paul@Autogeek]

Anybody here have American Flags on their ride?

Another Jeep built for the trails

Jeeps are by far the most popular off roaders - at least here at SEMA

Aggressive tread on the off road tires

What else would you add on here to help survive?

That's one serious suspension setup

There's also a serious audio setup in the back!

Anybody know the story behind this bike?

I'm usually not a fan of yellow but it looks good here

One of the coolest Jeeps out here

 

[Paul@Autogeek]

Yet again we see the trend of retro-fitted headlights continue here.

Sometimes unrestored cars are the coolest - this is one of those times

Gotta love the look of those classic gas caps

Plenty of Aero work on this build

Slick widebody GTE

Simple yet clean Ford Coupe

 

[Paul@Autogeek]

Bagged BMW completed with a gutted interior and roll cage

White-walls are a pain to keep clean but this goes as proof to how good they can look

This is certainly not your run of the mill Bel-Air build

Huge Vortec supercharger in the engine bay

The Mello Yellow Funny Car

The RS sure is a good looking hatchback

Raw Aluminum Body, who wants to polish this out?

Another old Ford

Of course with a newer engine under the hood Looks like there are some Dual-Weber Carbs under there!

Is any other car manufacturer as noticeable from just the grill on their cars? To me the iconic Kidney grills that BMWs have is unmistakable

Audi GT car covered with plenty of Carbon Fiber bodywork

SpeedKore 'Cuda “Menace”, features SpeedKore’s carbon fiber parts; hood, header, fenders, bumpers, and valance. Menace packs a 720hp Supercharged 6.4L HEMI V8. Menace was also part of Fast8 filming.

This would be great for Mobile Detailing or a camper conversion

 

[Paul@Autogeek]

Van comes complete with a viewing zone of your engine

How cool is this bike?

The Patina + Pinstriping really set this bike off perfectly.
