re: What is a 'hotrodder'?

Does this count? My baby girl (7) had to write a math question in class on Friday, no lie this is what she wrote. "There are 17 hotrods at the show, 4 left how many hotrods are at the show?" My wife had to call me at work to tell me I've warped her. Is she a hotrodder?

re: What is a 'hotrodder'?

Sounds like she comes by it honestly! She is certainly on her way. The real test will be when she would rather work on her Hotrod that go to the dance with some pimple face jerk.

re: What is a 'hotrodder'?

I fight depression by building hot rods.
I also fight depression by reporting spammers.

Just push the little red button and spam soon dissappears!!

Happy happy joy joy.

Enjoy your swirly.

re: What is a 'hotrodder'?

Man, I love the look of that Kurtis Roadster. If my memory serves me, when I was a kid reading everything I could find on cars, Roger Ward was driving Kurtis roadsters to Indy wins. Those cars and the Novis were the best looking cars at Indy. I guess we are about the same age and grew up on the same stuff.

She is the only one to volunteer to help get the Camaro ready for Cruisin the Coast. I have two boys (11 16) and she's the one ready to go.

re: What is a 'hotrodder'?

I really enjoy my T Bucket. My wife and I went cruising last night. I get lots of smiles and thumbs ups. Everywhere we stopped it rew a crowd. I would like to think it was my good looks but I know it was the T. I have had other Hotrods but I've never had one before that was so universally liked.

re: What is a 'hotrodder'?

I'd like to think it was her, it is true for me. She is a bright spot in my life for sure. Practically speaking, she is nearly 60 like I am. I think we both are well past drawing crowds with our good looks. I'm sure it was the T
