In this riveting episode from MotorTrend Channel, we delve into the world of Hollywood Hot Rods, a haven for automotive excellence masterminded by the legendary Troy Ladd. Renowned for crafting top-tier, award-winning cars for over two decades, Ladd's unassuming demeanor and unwavering passion set him apart in the industry. The spotlight shines on the M and Speedster, a true showstopper that clinched top honors at America's Most Beautiful Roadster show. With a design that breaks the mold and a 12-cylinder Flathead engine under the hood, this beast may not be the fastest, but it sure packs a punch on the road.
As we peel back the layers of Ladd's craftsmanship, we uncover the fascinating tale of a car enthusiast who dares to drive his prized possessions rather than lock them away as mere showpieces. The Speedster's journey, marked by unexpected repairs and upgrades like new carburetors, reveals the true essence of a car built to be enjoyed on the open road. Transitioning to the adrenaline-pumping realm of Bonneville, we witness Ladd's quest for speed and glory as he pushes the limits of performance in a bid to break records and etch his name in automotive history.
But the allure of Hollywood Hot Rods doesn't end there. Ladd's personal favorite, the iconic Number 17 car, showcases a perfect blend of tradition and power, boasting a 392 Hemi engine and a Magnum T-56 6-speed transmission that scream performance. The meticulous attention to detail in customizing a 1937 Ford, including a roof redesign for a sleeker look, underscores Ladd's commitment to marrying style with practicality. As we wrap up our journey through the annals of automotive artistry, we stand in awe of Ladd's achievements and the unwavering dedication that propels him forward in the fast-paced world of hot rods and high-speed dreams.
