There was the innovative Land Rover, and the "bubble car" phenomenon. By 1958, new car buying was leading a consumer boom. . . and...

Not only is Darryl a champ at building kustom creations, he is also one of the top auto show producers in the U.S. For some 21 years I had been in the shadow of this high-energy, often unbelievable, man helping him build cars and produce car shows-a schooling that isn't available...
