Description: The Burbank Choppers are true traditional hot rodders who are among the most well-known and influential in the world. This book gives readers an inside look at the Choppers' unique lives and cars.
The book's look and feel is accentuated with carefully selected black & white and colour photographs and a stunning, subject-appropriate design.
If you haven't noticed, traditional hot rodding is back in a big way. Among the scene's biggest players are the members of an exclusive club known as the Burbank Choppers. The Choppers gained prominence recently with an appearance on the TLC show RIDES, but this recent fame belies the fact that they've been living and promoting their brand of traditional hot rod and custom car philosophy for more than 15 years. The Choppers have appeared in every major hot rodding magazine and fanzine, including Rod and Custom, The Rodder's Journal, Car Kulture Deluxe, and many more, building a worldwide reputation.
In The Electroline Diaries, author Laurent Bagnard follows the Choppers through southern California, Las Vegas, and even a huge hot rod show in Yokohama, Japan, where the Choppers were guests of Mooneyes, the famed speed parts company. He captures the Choppers in their element, hanging out with fellow hot rodders, catching their favourite bands, travelling to car shows far and wide and cruising in their cars. This book is a window into the unique lifestyle of the Choppers that has influenced gearhead culture around the world.
