About the Author
Albert Drake has been a hot rodder since 1951. In addition to the Fifties Flashback column that he has written for Rod Action for years, he has published more than 300 articles and features in Street Rodder, Rodder's Digest, Rod Action, Popular Cars, Custom Car, American Rodder, Collector Car, Old Cars Weekly and others. His automotive books include Street was Fun in '51, the first book on historical hot rodding; Twenties to the Nineties; and Flat Out, the history of So-Cal dry lakes competition from 1930-1950. Although his primary interest is rod and custom history, he has written two books on the Pontiac GTO; The Big 'Little GTO' Book, a definitive history, and Herding Goats, an oral history.
