Cliff Horn's 1954 Chevy Bel Air⁠
🏆️ Goodguys Feature Pick⁠
⁠
Cliff Horn grew up in a hot rodding family and fondly remembers riding to shows and swap meets with his dad, Patrick, in a ’31 Chevy coupe, a ’50 Olds 88, and other vintage rides. In the 1980s, Cliff went the young guy’s route with VWs, even attending early Goodguys Bug Bash events, followed by mini trucks with a dropped ’89 S10 Blazer. At the turn of the century, he picked up a ’68 C10 and blew it apart planning a ground-up rebuild.⁠
⁠
Like it does with many projects, life got in the way and all of a sudden, a decade had slipped by and the C10 was still far from together. No longer wanting to ride shotgun to shows, Cliff was on the lookout for a new cruiser that he and his wife, Debbie, could get in and enjoy without much work. He didn’t really have a specific car in mind, so when he spied a white ’54 Chevy Bel Air for sale at the 2016 West Coast Nationals, he went in for a closer look.⁠

Legends in Hot Rodding: The Quarter Mile Gasser of All Time – the 1940 Willys of Stone, Woods and Cook.

While Stone, Woods and Cook may sound like an upscale bistro or possibly a law firm, for drag racing fans and historians that troika of names only means one thing — the blown, blue, and bad ’41 Willys coupe that not only dominated the early 1960s Gasser Wars, but also helped propel NHRA into the modern age.

And not only on the track. As Stone, Woods & Cook broke records on the tarmac it also toppled racial barriers by being the first prominent African American race team. The team’s roots date back to NHRA’s founding year, 1951, a time when races began with a flag and ended with a stopwatch.
