Currently as i type im listening to The Wolfman Jack show episode 28 on American Graffiti radio.

and, having imported a car from Connecticut, i found..

B1073 Streaming Page - B107.3 FM

These suffer from the usual problems of playing the same stuff over and over and some annoying adverts but otherwise theyre quite good.

I have found that a lot of promising stations with names like Route 66 and American Road radio are not American at all with DJs speaking in Romanian or whatever.

There seems to be a bewildering number of local radio stations in the US to trawl through. I guess from the lack of recommendations that there are not many stations that specifically appeal to the Hot Rodding community. Shame really.. theres a business opportunity for someone

As you've said, the "...bewildering number of local radio stations in the US..." points to the fact that unless you're in the wilds of Wyoming or North Dakota you've probably got a pretty wide selection of radio stations to choose from by trolling the dial. Thus there's not as much need for internet radio. Now I'm sure that there are folks that will say they tune in via computer every day, but for me it's just not something I do.

I got the internet radio because i used to go to an American style Diner (Kens Diner now closed) which always had an American radio station playing and i wanted to recreate that feel.

This is my diner set at home..
