The rich and famous aren’t like the rest of us. Or are they? Despite hundreds of hours on national television driving like a hero, catching fire, blowing up, then jumping out of a roof hatch for the interview, Jack Beckman is a regular guy with an amazing life story, and he’s just plain likable. The story of “Fast Jack” and his El Camino goes all the way back to a baseball-playing, skateboarding, skinny kid from California’s San Fernando Valley in the early 1980’s.

Hooked on drag racing at age 7 while hanging on the fence at historic digs like Orange County International Raceway and later the high-desert LACR, Jack saw a fuzzy vision of what he could become if it was in the cards. The 1968 El Camino came from Jack’s dad as a second-owner SS396 originally purchased at Rancho Chevrolet in Reseda, California. After high school, Jack joined the Air Force to serve as an avionics technician, dragging the car to his station at Cannon AFB in Clovis, New Mexico.
