Fall 2013 Chattanooga Cruise In
We always know we’re in for a lot of work during the fall months, due to a number of events, and this year was absolutely the most action-packed September in our history. The Street Rodder Road Tour passed through on Thursday, the 5th, then we had the Chattanooga Cruise In on Saturday, the 7th, and…

As you know, we’re running wide open and rarely have enough time to sit down and blog about the happenings around here. One of the things that gets us fired up is the Chattanooga Cruise In, which is a massive gathering of hot rods, right here at Honest Charley! We try to tell all of…

And we’re already shivering! Let’s get one thing straight…hot rods are great in optimal weather conditions, but it gets cold real quick here in the Tennessee Valley. We have fought with stock heaters and tried to come up with our own creations, but this little universal unit is certainly our favorite option. It fits in…
Read MoreCruise In at Honest Charley Sept 29th!
In case you haven’t heard, we’ve teamed up with Coker Tire to host a huge Cruise In twice per year. Our April Cruise In was a major success, with 500 cars in attendance, so we’re doing it again on September 29th! We worked hard to choose a date that didn’t conflict with other local cruse…
Read MoreThe Nationals!
That’s what we call it around here, but the long version is the NSRA Street Rod Nationals in Louisville, Kentucky. We go up there every year to join more than 10,000 of our closest street rodding friends, and this year was no different. We had a great event with lots of great business, but we…

In fact, Mike Goodman (Honest Mike) built a T-Bucket in the ’70s and drove it all over the United States. Now, the National T-Bucket Alliance is bringing…

It’s really great to have a national street rod event just up the road from our shop in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Even if we don’t set up as a vendor at these semi-local shows, we always like to go check ’em out, to see all the cars and potentially find a cool deal in the swap…
Read MoreCruise In Again!
For those of you who came out for our Cruise In last September, you know it was a great event, with 300 of the coolest cars and trucks in this area. It was so successful that we’re doing it again in 2012–one in the spring and one in the fall! Our first Cruise In will…
Read MoreNew Shirts!
We’ve noticed over the years that people love Honest Charley T-shirts, so a few years ago, several new designs were introduced to add a little spice to the regular Honest logo shirt. The new shirts were quite popular, but many of them have certainly run their course on the market, so we’re ready to throw…
Read MoreHot Rods in Paradise
We have a thing for hot rods, and historic drag strips are a huge part of the hot rodding community. Drag strips played a big part in promoting the hobby back in the day, and the ones that are still around do a great job of keeping the vintage spirit alive. We thoroughly enjoy visiting…
