Welcome aboard. I hear that the term "Street Rod" is frowned on, but I don't see why. In fact I think that term differentiates a pre 49 modified car from something newer. I am hoping to get some opinion on this well warn topic. I was encouraged to submit some photos when I joined, so I would be interested to see your 31.
I was told by a friend here on the HAMB, that hot rods are allergic to billet... that is one of the differences... Welcome and post some pics of car...
