The article is the first in a series paying tribute to the magazines long time photographer Bob D'Olivio. Interesting article and some very cool photos. D'Olivo's photographic subjects were not always focused just on sheet metal but the car culture in general. Having worked for Hot Rod magazine, along with freelancing for other clients related to the world of the automobile, he rubbed elbows with some pretty well known people of the era including Sandra Dee, the Everly Brothers, Annette Funicello and many others. The story and accompanying photos make for a fun stroll down memory lane.
