It's hard not to have a soft spot for hot rods if you have any love for cars at all. They're cars taken to the next level, souped up, tricked out and looking better than the day they rolled out of the factory and down the highway for the first time. A hot rod can be anything from a vintage Mustang to a Frankenstein car made of whatever parts fit together and produce intense power and speed. Some are kit cars you assemble for yourself; others are loving restorations made from all original parts. Regardless of how they're made, if you want to drive in their world, you need to know the lingo that makes it all work. Nothing is as simple as a muffler or a supercharger, not when you can say a flamethrower or a blower!
Hot rod slang is as colorful as the hot rods themselves. From zoomies in the exhaust to a bugcatcher on the hood and a mother-in-law seat hanging out in the back, there are a lot of cool phrases to add some flair. So if you know your wheelie bars and your baloneys, or why you'd want a nerf bar and a glasspack, take the quiz and prove it!
