You got that one hot rod buddy who’s done all the cool stuff and gone all the great places and uncovers all the goodies all the time and has the greatest job ever? If you’re lucky, you know exactly what we’re talking about and life is so much more interesting because of that one friend.

In our world, that one guy is our Man About Town, Bobby Green of Old Crow Speed Shop!

While it’s true that Bobby has built some of our favorite period-correct hot rods out of Old Crow (and got the one and only Chris “Coop” Cooper to do the Old Crow Speed Shop logo), he’s also a partner in 1933 Group – the crew that brought Los Angeles the return of the historic Idle Hour and bars like Oldfield’s (as in Barney Oldfield), as well as the restoration of the Formosa Café and the Tail ‘O The Pup. He’s got a Japanese apparel brand, a few hot rods in a Tommy Hilfiger ad campaign, and a tamale restaurant that looks like a giant pipe-smoking dog from the Petersen Museum. If it’s vintage hot rod-inspired and it’s cool, Bobby either owns it, found it, or knows about it.

So, roll up your pant legs and set up camp on the edge of the pool, over there: we’ll bring the drinks over and wait for Bobby to get here – you’ll wanna hear this!
