The 'Burbank Choppers' are true traditional hot rodders who are among the most well-known and influential in the world. 'The Electroline Diaries - A Journey with the Burbank Choppers Car Club' by Laurent Bagnard gives readers an inside look at the cars and lifestyle of the Burbank crew.

The look and feel of this book is accentuated with carefully selected black & white and color photographs and a stylish design. Long time hot rod enthuisiast, Mike Ness of Social Distortion, wrote the foreword. Author Laurent Bagnard follows the Choppers through southern California, Las Vegas, and even a huge hot rod show in Japan, where the Choppers were guests of Mooneyes, the famed speed parts company. Throughout its 208 pages, Bagnard captures the Choppers in their element - hanging out with fellow rodders, catching their favourite bands, travelling to car shows, and just cruising in their custom rides. A window into the unique and influential lifestyle of the Burbank Choppers, The Electroline Diaries is now available from selected automotive specialist bookstores. RRP $69.95 ISBN: 1932494650.
