Hot Rods

What are rockabillys driving? Ever asked you this question?


Of course they are driving hot rods. This are typically American cars with large engines which are modified for linear speed. There are many explanations from where the word Hot rod could come. Some are saying from the term "hot roadster" where they mean a roadster that was modified for speed. Another explanation is about the camshaft(s) which they used to modify or replace and that is sometimes known as a "stick" or "rod". If a camshaft was designed to produce more power they also called it sometimes "hot stick" or "hot rod".



Ok I don't want to bore you with many details about hot rods. I will rather show you some awesome pictures of nice hot rods :-)
