Let’s agree for a moment that hot rodding and customizing are, at their core, one and the same. I got to thinking about this a couple of nights ago as I stood in a crowded bar and listened to an evening of amazing music - Dave Alvin (Blasters), the Supersuckers and the incredible Reverend Horton Heat. This is haulin’ ass music, and it brought back a flood of memories of hot rodding, racing, and of loss and redemption.
