Customer comments on this selection.
A 'must read' for anyone who has every owned, worked on, ridden in, or spent their youth admiring Deftly edited by Dain Ginerelli, "Hot Rod Roots: A Tribute To The Pioneers" is profusely illustrated with images selected from the more than 20 photographs and thousands of hours of videotaped interviews with the people and cars that broke records on drag strips and in dry lake beds with their ingeniously adapted motor vehicles that transformed discarded car bodies, flatheads, and four-bangers into the American automotive phenomena that would become universally recognized as the 'hot rod'. Comprised of informed and informative essays by seven experts, "Hot Rod Roots" covers such diverse issues as hot rodding and World War II, belly tanks and other speed related changes, track roadster racing, and drag racing, the spreading popularity of hot rods through magazines and car shows. Of special note are A. B. Shuman's essay 'From Out of the East' and Mark A. Morton's 'Hot Rod Heritage'. Simply stated, "Hot Rod Roots" is a 'must read' for anyone who has every owned, worked on, ridden in, or spent their youth admiring the great American hot rod!
