I'm just curious here, How many people on this vast forum actually have what they consider a Hot Rod? In my mind, I see flathead powered dueces and fat fendered coupes (and pickups by the way), muscle cars, dragsters, salt flat racers, and oddballs that go like stink. Tell all what you have and why you think it is a Hot Rod.

My E-150 because it has mag wheels and 4 on the floor......

 

Years ago I had em;
'66 Fairlane, built 390, 4 speed
'39 Ford 5 window coupe, 347 Pontiac, 3 dueces
'46 Ford 2 door sedan, SBC
'49 Ford 2 door sedan, '53 Merc flatty, bored, stroked, 2 dueces, dual point, side pipes
'56 F100 Panel, 350 Olds
'66 V-dub, bored, carb, headers
'71 GMC Sprint, LS5

I'm currently restoring a '65 Cutlass convertible and building the 330...cam, headers, intake, etc.

I call it my sneaker car.

84 Monte SS
383 Stroker
Edelbrock Injection
450 HP dyno at the rear wheel with a 250 shot Nitrous injection.

I run a remote K&N filter to keep the stock hood, it sounds like an original 305 car with loud exhaust.

Not sure if it would qualify as a classic Hot Rod.....but it is fun to drive.

 

Blown 390 with a 4 spd..........in a '64 Galaxie 2 dr. Not THAT'S a hot rod

428 2/4 bbls with a 4 spd in a '69 F100........that's a hot rod.

428 2/4 bbls with a Nash 5 spd in a '64 Galaxie wagon.........that's a hot rod.

Those are my toys, and I consider them hot rods.

I have a friend that just finished a 32 Ford roadster with a Ardun head(hemi) flattie . It is classic hot rod!!

A ricer with a fart can/big wing..............NOT a hot rod...

 

1965 Pontiac GTO 2dr hardtop, red with black bucket seat interior, 4 speed, positraction. Built 400 motor with 3 two-barrel carbs. A real kick to drive.

 

How about a pair of AMXs. Both 390 4sp go pak cars. 1. 68 and 1. 69 Pictures of the 69 in my gallery.
