Hot Rods

Hot rods and rodding offer the enthusiast more options for finishing a vehicle than perhaps any other gearhead pursuit. When it comes to a hot rod, parts aren't just parts; it's all in how they come together - either it works or it doesn't. This new "Motorbooks Idea Book" covers every system of a traditional hot rod-roadster, coupe, or tub - illustrating with hundreds of color photos the various options for frame rails, suspension, steering, brakes, wheels and tires, drivetrain, electrics, cooling, body, interior, and paint. Whether you're looking for inspiration or practical answers, this book will guide you from off-the-shelf, fabricated, and even found parts and pieces to the finished hot rod of your dreams.
