Hot rods are legendary and shape beach culture, movies, and music.
They represent youth, rebellion, and the urge to do things differently.
The hot rod was invented by ordinary people:
They took an old Tin Lizzie, removed the fenders and hood, heated up the engine, gave it a unique, individual look, and created a machine that eclipsed every other car on the road.
These pioneers and their machines inspired awe in children and fear in the elderly.
The hot rod movement has always been a grassroots movement, an underground art form
that defies a simple chronicle with a concise bow.

"The All-American Hot Rod" is a history of those who experienced it, the countless voices and images of people
who know and love the hot rod like nothing else.
It's a truly American story with an exhaust note heard around the world.
If you're still thrilled about your first hot rod, still drive and tune hot rods, or still dream of hot rods,
then this book is for you.
