1933 Ford Pick Up, 1931 Ford Five Window Coupe, 1929 Ford Tudor Sedan.
This month we are bringing you three bad ass
phat rides to check out. They belong to a
group of guys better known as the Atlanta
Road Kings. The Atlanta Road Kings are a group of car
buffs that believe in turning their own wrenches and actually
driving the piss out of their cars rather than keeping
them covered up in a garage. The cars that the group
own collectively range from shiny show cars to rat rod
street racers and they all generally match the cars they
drive as far as personality and appearance.You can find
them gathered at any event in Atlanta that has to do with
showing or diving vintage rides or Rockabilly bands. We
caught up with them at one of our new favorite haunts,
Mulligans, in the Oakhurst district of Decatur, Georgia. Keep
an eye out for them at the annual Starlight Drive-In
Invasion "Dixie Pride" car show over Labor Day weekend
in September.
