What happended to Hot Rod hell?

A few years back I had ordered shirts from Hot Rod Hell out of Cali. They were nice shirts but I am unable to find these guys anymore, just wondering what happened to them?

 

Looks like they have been gone for a while....I didn't realize it either...

Still around...just low key now.

 

I think they sold a lot of T shirts.

 

"Where the bad cars go" I always wanted one of those shirts!

 

The skeleton driving the Merc is my favorite shirt. But it's pretty ragged now.

 

I heard they made more money selling shirts than working on cars....man they sold a ****load at the GG's events.

 

What's wrong with selling a bunch of t-shirts to finance building Hot Rods? Isn't that what ROTH did?

 

Kind of like Harley.I think they make more selling t shirts....

 

I never said anything was wrong with it....The story I heard was they had a rod shop and came up with the great logo and shirts and ended up in the Tshirt business more than the car business. I wore one out!

 

Hmm Heaven, is better than Hell anyway........

 

i wore mine till it was a rag too. cool shirts

 

Jim is doing a new line of clothing..
The story he told me some "guy" says he owns the right to the name "hot rod"
and made him quit using it.(guess he had a BIG lawyer)

He sent me a copy of a hang tag.
Hellraiser is the new name.

 

I just bought a 37 Zephyr grill from the guy a few months back. He is in Escondito, CA. Still building cars. He said he wasn't doing the t-shirt business much anymore.

 

Maybe it's the same ***hole that says he owns "RAMCHARGERS" now and won't let anyone use it or the paint scheme.

 

I still have some of his shirts new never worn . the ones with the Merc. I also have some posters left and I even have a few with the skeleton riding the motor Cycle. I will have to see what all I have left.

 

He told me it was a Canadian guy.
Sent legal cease and stop it notices.
The fellow honestly believes he owns the name and right to "Hot Rod"

 

and I thought Norwell was a nice guy..........




J/K!!

 

I saw a pic of the Merc years ago and it said "Where the bad cars go". I never knew there was anything related to it. I thought it was just some bad*** picture. Interesting...

 

People can be @$$(*&^%*- Sure he owns the word if I had enough money I would like to challenge his *** into just how does he own the rights to the word HOT ROD. What an idiot.

 

Get 'em Jeff!

 

Some people never stop amazing me.

 

I wonder why he hasn't sued Hot Rod Magazine?

 

Well I guess Hot Rod formerly of Hot Rod's of Norco is screwed then...

 

their still there in diego. going down this sunday to check out their shop!

 

Just another d-bag who lives life by peeking over his lawyer's shoulder. I say drop him in the middle of the salt and let him run back as we buzz him in our H** R**s. Sweet salty justice.

 

They were cool shirts. Mine don't fit anymore but I still have it. Hopefully he comes out with something new that just as cool.
