Tin Indian Takes Top Honours
Tue, Mar 25th, 2008
The cold winds of winter always take a back seat when the Performance World Custom Car and Truck show comes to the International Centre in Toronto, Ontario. Entering its 44th year, the show always brings out the best iron, firbre glass and now carbonfibre for eager spectators to see. This year, drag cars were amongst the top when considering such things as paint, detail and overall engineering. One of the most impressive cars in the show was the 1933 Willy’s Pro Mod of Aaron Pilatzke. After selling his streetable 33 Willy’s, Pilatzke purchased this Pro Mod with the intentions of restoring it back to its original state, the Tin Indian which was once owned by well known drag racer Johnny Rocca. The car is rich in history which is one of the reasons the car has always been so appealing to Aaron. Congratulations to Aaron on his Best Engineered and 1st place in Pro Mod awards. The crew from HitMan HotRods, who had a hand in the Tin Indian build, were on hand promoting their shop that is located nearby in Cambridge.
