This month creativity reigns not only in the making of some incredible cars, but also in time management because there’s so much to be enjoyed in the Custom Car world right now and so little time to do it in. The April issue of Custom Car has arrived and this one is going to require your diary and a well-inked pen!

We review the coolest cars from the Grand National, Ian Burton tries to convince us that his S10 really is his last build project, and we pay homage to the postwar US hot rods.

A regular 1952 Devon shows us that with a heap of unchecked creativity and a self-proclaimed ‘obstinate recluse’ for an owner you can become just about anything, before Mick Micetich takes us through the illustrious past of his ’58 Ranchero.

The ‘no-prep’ season kicks off at Manston Raceway Park this month, so we take a look at the recent testing day held there in anticipation of the opening races and you can find every essential date to be marked on your calendar in our events list – it’s a long one, so get comfy!
