The year
was 1973 and two friends were building a pair of ’34
Ford 3 window coupes. The cars were finished in 1974 and made
the cover of Rod & Custom magazine. What was to follow
made Hot Rod history.
The two
cars “The California Kid” and “Jake’s
Coupe” have totaled up almost 250,000 hot rod miles through
the years. Being test cars for their product line, these two
reside on their show room floor for visitors to see.
From
this friendship was born Pete and Jake’s Hot Rod Repair,
which later became Hot Rod Parts. Opening its doors in 1974
Pete and Jake’s has continued its long-standing reputation
for building quality suspension components for hot rods. The
products are known for their strength as well as longevity.
The business is known for its quality service and technical
assistance.
Becoming
a corner stone of the industry took time and dedication, continuing
the tradition takes innovation and resilience. Pete and Jake’s
front ends and rear end assemblies have been a standard in
the traditional hot rod chassis.
With
the marriage of Super Bell Axle Co., in 2004, they now can
offer to our customers a full range of high quality components
for 1928-1948 Ford cars and trucks, including front to rear
suspension parts.

THE
CALIFORNIA KID
Premiering as a prime time movie in 1974, "The California
Kid" movie boosted the acting careers of Martin Sheen
(the kid), Nick Nolte (to truck driver), Vic Morrow (the evil
sheriff), and others. But more importantly it exposed millions
of TV viewers to an automobile that exemplifies what hot rodding
is all about. A mean machine: chopped, flamed, louvered, down
in front, and of course - highly powered! A car practical
enough to be driven daily on the street or across the country,
and at the same time capable of meeting challenges beyond
the range of the average car. The movie climaxes in a heads-up
chase where the California Kid outmaneuvers, outperforms the
speed crazed villain on a winding mountain road.
