  • Past Gas #245: Hot Rods Were The Original Tuner Cars
    Jul 8 2024
    This week on Past Gas…it’s the history of Hot Rodding! Hot rod culture might seem tame today, and is probably more associated with baby boomer car shows than rebellious street racers. But the engine building and custom aesthetic work hot rodders did during their heyday not only kickstarted the aftermarket performance and car enthusiast media industries- it also set a blueprint for the countless enthusiasts that have followed. How did it go from essentially nothing to a major influence in car culture? How did it create some of the most ubiquitous racing series? And how does it continue to influence car culture today?

Flawless podcast.

Genuinely THE best automotive podcast there is. The stories that the Kentucky Cobra and the milk man nolan are to die for. could not leave a higher rating but would if possible.

Joe gotta go

Sorry guys, but Joe doesn’t do it for me. He doesn’t for the dynamic and his inputs are off the mark most of the time.
