Â
The street rod phenomenon really got going in the early 1950s. Â There was a good supply of old 29s Fords around, and the new overhead valve V-8s were hitting the market. Â This was the perfect combination for a young man who was good with his hands. Â The Model A Street Rods were light, powerful and cheap to build. But most importantly they were very fast!
Â
As the years have gone by, hot rods have become more sophisticated and more expensive. Â They are no longer just an outlet for teenagers to go fast. Â They have been replaced by Muscle Cars and highly tuned import cars. Â Today, the parts are custom made just for street rods. Â It has become an entire industry, and it all started because kids wanted to go fast.Â
