Bill Blair Sr was a prominent bootlegger with a skill for modifying his Flathead Fords to outrun the law who later became on of the first ever NASCAR drivers. Bill Blair Jr is a historian who preserved many artifacts from his fathers moonshine and racing career, along with other pioneer racing artifacts. We visit his shop/personal museum to get a firsthand experience on how these moonshine runners created the very first "hot rods" to carry contraband and outsmart the police. Bill Jr also built NASCAR engines for Richard Childress, Billy Hagan, and many successful drag racers as an avid Pontiac collector. Among his collection are numerous 1939 and 1940 Ford coupes, highly modified Flathead Ford V8 engines, a Pontiac raced by Mickey Thompson, and a couple former Ford stock car racers rescued from barns!
