Hot childbirth called classic American roadsters (machines without top), modified in order to increase the power and quickly reach high speeds.


There are several opinions, for what it is doing and one of them — street racing. Jacobs takes away his drag racing history.


Perhaps, in the middle of the last century it was. But I have heard the legend that initially these machines were built during Prohibition in the 20s, to carry alcohol.

A fast they were made in order to be able to hide from the police.

It is difficult to confirm or refute, as a true legend, but the aura of romance accompanied these beautiful cars ever and it continues to this day. We walked Hot-rod and Classic car national festival.


New Zealand — a country car scene which is full of American and world classics. Zealanders love and cherish their old machines, so these festivals there is always something to see. All these items are in a state museum exhibit. Look at the replica of the Lamborghini Countach.



They are polished, well-groomed, rubbed to a shine. Not surprisingly, in the fields of Qom town stretches a huge camp participants, who came from across the country. On the way to the event, I felt like I was suddenly transported back half a century. Defile yellow, blue, red hot rods and Muscle cars, rumbling, filled the whole neighborhood. Lacquered sides blinded from New Zealand under the hot sun bonnet rising haze.


According to the organizers, the entry to the festival for the thematic machines will be free. The rest, who wants to plunge into the world of automotive classics, have to pay ten dollars.


The atmosphere is completely repeated the chosen concept. Even with food stalls were styled in the spirit of the time of the last century.


The result was a, you know, with a dash of vintage biker culture. Most of the cars have been exhibited all over the grass, and in the mansion, standing in the middle of fields Qom, launched a modified spare parts trade.


There was held a show of artists involved airbrushing. After airbrushing — an integral part of American culture classics.


I am interested in the conversion kit for the car in low-rider (extremely undervalued cars). That kind of thing you have to install in order to scrape the bottom of the road.


Adds atmosphere band event, it reminds me tarantinovsky «From Dusk Till Dawn.»


One, but for a long time solvable problem — to leave the territory. probably hundreds of hot rods are not used to linger in one place and, therefore, the whole day cruising on the roads. A departure from the festival at the same time there was only one. Is it any wonder that there formed a kilometer traffic jam. Aggravates the situation is that some age overheated cars from the long standing and had to turn off the engines to cool down.


After that day, I wanted to review the irresistible «The Fastest Indian» and.....kupit hot-rod, of course.
