As a child, few things were more exciting than opening gifts on Christmas morning.

Now, as a grown-up (sort of), it’s hard to the beat the anticipation and excitement of opening a brand new Summit Racing catalog. That’s where you find the toys for us big boys.

On this Christmas morning, we’ve decided to double the fun by revisiting some of Summit Racing’s Christmas catalogs from the past. More specifically, we’ll look at the hot rods that earned the coveted cover spots on those catalogs.

How many of these rides can you remember?
