While out in California over the weekend, we popped down to Salinas a town whose main claims to fame are John Steinbeck and a line in a song from Rancid's second album to check in with our man Cole Foster. Having grown up around Top Fuel guys (the Snake and the Mongoose were often dinner guests at the Foster house), in the last five years Foster's become a force to be reckoned with in the rod, custom and motorcycle scenes. Cole's the real deal, building cars for the love of it, living above his shop in a Salinas industrial park, and turning out some of the baddest-ass stuff you've ever seen including cars for Social Distortion's Mike Ness and Metallica's Kirk Hammett.
