Traditional Hot Rodding at its Best !
If you are tired of cookie cutter Street Rods, and hacked together Rat Rods, this is something you can sink your teeth into. Just great Hot Rods that will remind you of the late '40's, 50's, and early 60's. It's nice to see that there are still guys out there who, "get it", including the author.

Any hot rod fan who collects vintage classics will thus relish Old School Hot Rods
'Old school' is here defined as 'Deuce' coupes and Model A roadsters, among others: it's old chassis, old stylings, and old hot rods from the 1950s. Any hot rod fan who collects vintage classics will thus relish Old School Hot Rods: Radical Rides That Stand the Test of Time, which packs in pages of color photos along with rebuilding and renovation experiences from a range of collectors.

Old School, Not Rat Rods
I thought this book would have more "Rat Rods" in it, but it leans more towards the 'traditional' old hot rod. Still a good book for your automotive library.
