All
special-interest hobbies have their followings, and Hot Rod devotees
are no exception. Every week in every major metropolitan area across
America, you can count on at least a few enthusiast-run clubs meeting
up to do what gearheads of all tastes do: race, swap parts, cruise
around on lazy weekend afternoons, fill a major venue with its very
own auto show,
or simply hang out and eat.
Some
Street Rodsclubs are dedicated to a certain cars, others to cars of a
certain make, others still care not at all. Many have restrictions on
age – that is, of cars that are too young. "Young" is an
elastic term, and in some cases can stretch to mean anything produced
before 1948. Banned, just like that.
Speaking
of age, enthusiasm for transportation of decades past tends to be
shared by those who can remember them. Most members of these clubs
belong to certain generations, and X and Y aren’t among them.
The
west coast (especially the south end) has supposedly always been the
center of car culture in general and hot rodding specifically. Here
are some of the many organizations in Southern California alone,
whose very names often paint a telling picture of what to expect:
-
Classic Cruisers
-
Roam’n Relics
-
Sultans of Long Beach
-
Ventura Vintage Rods
-
Bean Bandits
-
FoMoCoMofos
