On the Cover:<br />

You don’t usually hear the words “spindly,” “badass,”<br />

and “high performance” used together to describe a<br />

black four-banger–powered 1919 Ford Model T, but<br />

Drop-In:<br />

Arturo Quesada creeps around the streets of Ardmore, OK, in his<br />

traditionally restyled full custom ’50 Ford sedan.<br />
