Two generations of Taylor gearheads joined us to talk about everything from their origins in the automotive industry, to career successes, and discussing the Isky Tribute Roadster.

Dennis is the owner of Hot Rods by Dennis Taylor, a custom shop that operates in Booneville, Arkansas. Growing up, Alex spent most of her time at her dad’s shop. At the age of 15, Alex and her parents began to build her car, and at 16 she became the youngest driver ever to compete in HOT ROD Drag Week, driving her "Badmaro" 1968 Camaro.

Now, Alex runs her own business, Alex Taylor Racing, along with an awesome YouTube page amassing over 100k subscribers.

Over the years, Dennis and Alex have grown close with Ed Iskenderian and the rest of the Isky team, so for the 75th anniversary of Isky Cams they teamed up to create this historic tribute Isky Roadster that will be at SEMA 2023.
