During the drag racing and muscle car eras, independent speed shops were a common sight in most every major city, and New York was no exception. Everyone wanted their car to go faster, or at a minimum look like it went faster, and Bronx Speed Shop was one of the places to help out with that. From all out supercharged racing engines and bombproof transmissions to polished mag wheels and chrome side pipes, Bronx Speed Shop was the go-to spot for countless New York gear heads over the years.

Like a lot of people in post-war America, Al Jerauld was an avid hot rodder looking for go fast thrills. He opened Jerauld's Speed Shop in the late '40s in National City, California. From catalog speed parts to many of his own creation, Jerauld's Speed Shop was the go-to spot in the San Diego area for go fast goodies. When he wasn't selling parts and installing them on customer cars, Al was a dry lakes racer who built and campaigned several cars over the years. One such lakester was the infamous Baby Bomb, which sported a destroked and sleeved '37 V8-60 Flathead with a tiny 88.75 cubic inch displacement that managed to turn some impressive speeds. Among Jerauld's many custom designed performance parts, many are still highly prized today.
