Custom Car Magazine September 2025 Back Issue

In the September issue of Custom Car, we’re rolling deep with blacker-than-black paint, roaring V8s, and scene-stealing machines from strip to street.

Paul Wilson’s blown ‘34 coupe – dubbed Back in Black – is a brutal beauty decades in the making, a dream car that started with a spark at York Raceway and ended up stealing the spotlight at the National Hot Rod Show.

We ride shotgun through Street Weekend, the fastest-growing event in the sport, where 400 miles of road and three tracks separated the serious from the sidelined. Spoiler: there were burnouts. Lots of them.

There’s ‘70s van culture reborn in Rich Voyce’s Dodge Tradesman, budget brilliance in Bryan Whitfield’s 300bhp shop truck, and the heart and horsepower of events like the NSRA Fun Run and The Main Event.
Add in Plus 44 show vibes, new Hall of Fame legends, and a proper slice of Barryfornia sunshine, and you’ve got an issue that captures the full-force pulse of the UK custom and drag scene.
