    So......you think you know hot rod terminology?

     



    Robot boy sent me a cute list via link; http://iowahawk.typepad.com/iowahawk...-vous-hot.html

    If you're an overly sensitive type you probably don't want to go there (no nudity or overly profane language though).

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Rat Rod: car carefully assembled using traditional 1950s techniques such as tack welds, carpentry nails, hot glue, zip ties, velcro, smeared feces, and midnight demolition derbys at the Pick N Pull. Also, what non-hot rodders will call your car. Examples: "Is that a rat rod?" and "Cool rat rod!"
    Ain't it the troof?

    Very funny, but the guy who wrote is is obviously a hot rodder.......especially the part about hiding receipts.

    That stuff is pretty damn good. Definitely a well seasoned rodder who has the experience of building a car and being married. Not necessarily at the same time.
