Ferrari, Mercury, race cars, movie cars, Petrolicious and 65 years of Hot Rods ...
Welcome Show Junkies
Delicious …
A tantalizing word with a bevy of connotations …
BBQ, Ice Cream or sleek & curvaceous beauties …
Like … you know … cars.
Race cars & Show cars … wild, unruly, rowdy and sometimes violent.
With a soft rumble, a harmonious growl or thunderous roar.
These machines command attention.
And this weeks video featuring a custom built Ferrari is simply mesmerizing.
Welcome to The Show Junkies newsletter.

Petrolicious creates quality, original videos and articles for classic car enthusiasts.

I do like creative minds and the channel name Petrolicious is a great name that stirs curiosity, kudos Petrolicious for the cool name and great videos.
While Youtube has many car videos’ it can be very challenging finding good videos. There are far too many videos with bouncy camera, poor angles, terrible audio and little or no editing.
This week I found one of the best videos I’ve seen in a far to long.
The shots are very well done as is the commentary and editing.
Within seconds of starting the video I was hooked and after it ended I found myself wanting more. I will probably watch it again.
With 1.2 million views the 1959 Ferrari 250 TR recreation video is a must watch for every car enthusiast.
Enjoy one mans dream and it’s fulfillment …

I enjoy a good treasure hunt and the article reveals the history, discovery and little known facts of the 1949 Mercury Hell’s Chariot from the hit movie Grease.
