Since 1984, J&B has been carving out a niche in the billet aluminum hot rod accessory market. With a full service machine shop at hand, craftsmanship is our #1 priority. We constantly strive to design and manufacture quality billet accessories and components. Our products emulate innovation in that our products are designed in shape and function, unlike any other products on the market today. Through the years our product line, as well as our custom one-off pieces, have been displayed on high quality vehicles featured in hundreds of nationally recognized magazines. We are equally as proud to manufacture both stock and one-off accessories for cars that are driven to every event they attend. Committed to excellence in quality of design and manufacturing, J & B will be introducing new products as they are developed. Watch for these new products to be highlighted in our New Products section of our web site & our page. We thank all of our past customers for allowing us to design & manufacture, through the years, off the shelf & one off parts for their rod, custom, street machine & or classic truck & look forward to designing & making parts for future customers, too !

This week's feature is a cool 32 Ford roadster all the way from France ! The owner/builder sent me a photo of a six gauge dash insert that was made by another machinist & wanted me to make him a similar dash insert with some changes. Since this insert started life as a 1.00" thick x 6" wide x 24" long solid chunk of billet, machining & handcrafting this style of insert was labor intensive & involved more than a few setups to accomplish with pocket milling, border milling, gauge boring, sanding & polishing operations required to accomplish the final results. Classic Instruments gauging was chosen for the visual display of engine parameters.

The 50th Anniversary of the Early Tin Dusters "Color Run" was presented under sunny skies on Saturday & Sunday's festivities ! On Sunday, at Moorman Park, the event produced a really cool get together of 48 & older hot rods of many different types. A Gray's Garage built (Metamora, Illinois based) 32 Ford fordor, owned by Jim Booth, won a NSRA safety award. It was a very appropriate award, as Jim drives this very cool 32 fordor to every event it's displayed at & safety is a prime consideration ! Jim asked me to design & handcraft the articulated cup holder base & cup holders to help accentuate the interior. Thanks Jim & congratulations on the safety award !

Segment two of the 50th anniversary of the Early Tin Dusters "Color Run". Over 500, 48 & older hot rods in attendance. What makes this sport so cool is out of the over 500 participants, no two cars or trucks are the same. Rolling automotive art was on display featuring very individualistic taste & style !

Since it was such a memorable summer we decided that the "Midwestern Tour" was to go into extra innings, so we booked a room & attended the 50th anniversary of the Early Tin Dusters "Color Run" in Quincy, Illinois. What a cool event it turned out to be ! Saturday's festivities included a well attended & participated hot rod event that featured some really cool 48 & older hot rods from as far away as Texas. The downtown businesses opened up to the hotrodders unlike any other event I've witnessed with poker runs & other opportunities. Quincy is a very historic city that features museums & other historic places to visit. All in all, it was a very pleasurable weekend ! Here is the first photo segment of two of some hot rods that caught my eye ! Let me know which is your favorite. I'll be posting the second photo segment tomorrow.

A cool feature of the 2026 Southeastern Hot Rod Show appears in the current Issue #82 of Rodding USA magazine & it includes some of the outstanding hot rods that participated in this awesome event, organized by Greg & Suzette Grier ! Marty Crain, of the Rodding USA editorial staff did a great job with text, photo captions & overall photography of this event that's growing in popularity among hot rodders each & every year. Greg & Suzette are doing all the necessary event organizing & planning & are busy bringing new attractions to their event. Greg will be releasing the new attractions on his page in the months ahead. I'll be handcrafting the "Best of Show" award again in 2027 & am currently in the design stage for a one of a kind award that will be hot rod oriented & innovative ! Last years "Best of Show" award winner Andrew Bowen's AMBR contending 32 roadster is featured in this post along with last years "Best of Show" award that I handcrafted specifically for the SEHRS. Mark your calendars & make arrangements for this very cool hot rod show, June 4th & 5th 2027, at the North Georgia AG fairgrounds in Dalton, Georgia !

The C10 Nationals held last weekend at the Nashville Super Speedway produced a large gathering of classic Chevy trucks ! Really happy for Dennis & Cyndi Quin as their 53 Chevy pickup "Eeyore" was given the "All American" award, there ! The Quin's hot rod hauler has had a successful year as it was also given the "Top Truck" award at the NSRA Mid America Nationals in May. Dennis & Cyndi's pickup build quality is top shelf with tasteful body modifications, precise panel gaps, panel straightness, fit of all body, chassis, suspension, engine compartment & interior components & consistent finishes of paint, powder coating & other coatings throughout. All these quality characteristics that come together to allow great stance, style & attitude. Congratulations Quin's !

Great turnout in beautiful weather for the "Cruisin' Heyworth" VFW Post 1550 car show, yesterday ! 120 participants registered in a day that brought some really cool rides to the town of Heyworth. Here are some photos of cars & trucks that participated in this event.

The 2026 Mother Road Festival exceeded my expectations of an event that gathered many participants & spectators from not only Illinois but from various other states & countries ! The "icing on the cake" came on Sunday during the awards ceremony. Our good friends Phil & Debbie Becker's 32 Ford Vicky was awarded "Best of Show" ! Really happy for them primarily, & secondly to all who contributed their skills & time for the construction of this build. Some of our other friends also won awards including Dan Burkitt & his 39 LaSalle & Kelly & Darla Moore for their 40 Ford Wildrod ! I've included photos of their cars & I've included photos of some of the parts that I handcrafted for all three award winning cars in this post. This really cool event definitely made its mark. We're looking forward to future Mother Road Festivals, ahead.

The International Mother Road Festival was a record breaking weekend ! 1498 registered vehicles were present & accounted for which eclipses the previous record participation by almost 300 vehicles ! This event has become one of best Illinois attended & organized events, & rightfully so. Many happenings took place over the weekend including experiencing the Illinois Army National Guard Flyover celebrating America's 250th & seeing up close, some top shelf hot rods I hadn't seen before & others that I have that are outstanding builds & are always a pleasure to look at. The icing on the cake was witnessing our friends & customers, Phil & Debbie Becker, Dan Burkitt & Kelly & Darla Moore, winning big awards from a very stout field. I'll be creating a post of the "Best of Show" winning participant on Thursday for our weekly post. So, stay tuned !

Witnessed an outstanding event in our state's capitol this past weekend, the "Mother Road Festival" ! This enormous event was organized to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Rt. 66 & also to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the festival. Although there's too much to list to completely report on all the attractions & activities let's just say there were many & well thought out. Hats off to the event organizers, Mayor of Springfield & police & security for an event enjoyed by everyone ! From the Friday night car cruise through the streets of Springfield where over a thousand participating cars, trucks & motorcycles drove through an extended cruise route (about an hour in length), including driving through the LRS Motordome (BOS Center) where an indoor car show was taking place & ending in the downtown area of the city to take in the laser light show displayed on the walls of the Old Capitol Building & a live band "Revil in Red" performing at the Isringhausen stage. What an event & this will be the first of two photo segments covering many very cool participating vehicles from several states & countries. Let me know which is your favorite participating vehicle. Thanks !
