    that is my question. is a hot rod a 30 to 32 ford? in my mind any car that is completly modified from its original form is a hot rod. if a car has an upgraded engine, transmission, brakes , body and paint its a hot rod! especially if the date of manufacture is before say 1966? by upgrades i mean faster quicker and prettier than original. what say you my fellow hamber's?

    Maybe you can get your 50 buck alliance money back and buy some little books. Then come back when you know what you joined.
    And I am most definitely NOT "your fellow HAMBer"

    A metal rod that has been heated beyond the point where it can be held for more than a few seconds in a bare hand.

    I always thought it was a piece of steel round rod in a fire? No wonder none of this web site ever made much sense!!

    I know this one well. It also leaves a nice long welt across the palm of your hand.

    well this was sparked by my 28 year old barber that feels that a hot rod must be built before 1945. after that it's a custom. i do not need help from dr phil or jim carry or my alliance money back. my only point is that a car or truck that is completly modified from stock to go faster and look cooler and stop better is a hot rod. thats it simple as can be hot rods are fast, light, and scary. i wish wally parks was here to see this he would be discusted.

    dude, just STOP! Change subject, we went through this too many times and you don't need to prove your point on this one. Get over it.

    Kustoms are picking up chicks and hot rods are for getting rid of them.
