Selections from Darryl Starbird

Rod and Custom Hall of Fame Museum

Legendary builder and entrepreneur, Darryl Starbird designed and built hundreds of incredible customs. Starbird produced over 400 Rod and Custom shows and is largely credited for bringing Midwest builders national recognition throughout the 1960s and beyond. After founding the National Rod and Custom Car Hall of Fame Museum in the early ‘90s the Museum of American Speed is proud to carry on that legacy by merging with the Starbird Family and their museum. ​
