A cult of backyard mechanics could be found, working with junkyard parts, created streamlined, no-nonsense racing cars for competition against each other over straight-line courses laid out on the nearby desert salt flats. In those days nothing but open country lay between the flats and such small towns as Pasadena, Glendale and Burbank where hot rodding began; and since few rodders had more than one vehicle, it was essential that the cars used for racing could also be driven to the sites, as well as back and forth from home to work during the week. Most early hot rods were Ford Model T or Model A roadsters鈥攃heap, plentiful, and lightweight, having no top and only a single seat. Standard procedure was to strip off all non-essential parts; fenders, running boards, ornaments, even the windshield鈥攖o achieve maximum weight reduction and aerodynamics. last updated: 03/07/07 SEE ALSOYou are in: Cornwall > About Cornwall > About Cornwall > Hot Rods At Hendra
