Athletes - Alex Xydias


Alex Xydias (born March 22, 1922 in Los Angeles) was an influential figure in the early days of the auto racing sport involving hot rods.

In 1946, immediately after Xydias was discharged from the United States Army Air Corps after serving as a B-17 engineer, he opened the So-Cal Speed Shop in Burbank, one of the first hot rod shops in Southern California. In 1950, he was the first person to break the 200 mph barrier with his hot rod named the "So-cal-Streamliner".
