Thank you for that basic information I'm 70 years old started when I was about 12 building models anyway you're right I wish there was a little more that people understood but apparently they don't thank you for the info have a good hot rod in life someone who loves hot rods thanks

The name hot rod came about when hoods came off to let heat escape and fenders came off to expose rods and linkage .it has taken on a whole new meaning over the years including the modern term rat rod . As a pioneer I can say we never intended them to look ratty it was just because most of us did not have the money for expensive detail. I personally never thought rust was kool and never will. We liked our rides to be nice as possible to draw admiration from viewers . Nuff said

Make a show on what's the difference between a hot rod and a rat rod

Mr Bleed , Where have you been I was having withdraws , good on ya from Australia

I hot rodded a kick-n-go once. 😀

Drift cars are better than rat rods. Preach it!

Hell yes!!! You’re One of my favorite builders man! Love seeing new videos on your channel! Keep em coming!!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Love it man! Can’t wait for the next one.

Great to see you putting some content out again, bob

Right on Bob. Everything is rodding. Yep the tuner guys are doing the same things that always have been done. Take a car you can afford, make it fast and look cool. Not my thing but I respect it.

Nailed it! 👊

Agreed! More of this please.

Right on bob! Glad to see you making videos again! I would love to do a video with you sometime to help your channel grow

"Its kinda dumb, but it's hot rodding" HAHA!

Fenders off are great for being pelted with gravel. 🤩 It’s just fun all the time.

I agree.

"it's kinda dumb, but it's hot rodding" Long live King Bob.

Missed seeing you on youtube. Hope everythings going great

🙌🏼

No rules in hot rodding 👍

Welp! ya got that right off . !!!!

You "understand" (and I'm assuming) "Accept" drift vehicles as some form of Hot Rodiing, but don't get the Rat Rod ting ? ..

Sort of narrow minded. Would you really tell a WWII vet that the 33 Plymouth 5 window coupe with a Chrysler Hemi he built when he got back home from the war that it was not a traditional hot rod because it was not a Ford? I think your definition falls way short of the original meaning when the Hot Rod movement was first taking place. Enjoy the stuff the turn out, but disagree with your narrow definition.

International trucks are NOT traditional hotrods

Oh everything is a hot rod except any other car than a early ford , watch your own clip, fender or no fender is the builders choice is it not, or do you write the rules
